Stretching

Yesterday was a day for the owlets to do a lot of stretching and climbing. At times they hung their heads down in a comical fashion as they dozed. They stretched wings, stood up tall, and at several points, all three of them were up on the railings and off the floor. They are taking short stints in the doorway, looking out at the world. These are the first owlets we've had that have actually seen the world in a dramatic way before leaving the box voluntarily. We can only speculate what they must think of it all, and what they must think of people.

I was totally confused on the day of stretching! I saw them doing upside-down and thought there was something wrong until I'd watched for a while and saw that they were indeed just dozing. Is that pretty normal for owlets? Your site has been fantastic, we've enjoyed checking in almost everyday. Gooooo, Owlets!!
