We had our first hatching. It seems like it was tonight, because we didn't see anything but eggs earlier, but we can't be sure, because it could have been hiding close to the camera. You can see the fuzzy white head and body, plus a bit of wing definition
in the first photo. Also, the feedings have stepped up a lot, with Mr. Owl delivering at least 10 meals between sundown and midnight. After each feeding, Mrs. Owl, bends down and tears it up to feed it to the hatchling. This is different from her usual gulping behavior, when she is only feeding herself.
