A Windy Day

Mrs. Owl visited her eggs in the wee hours of the morning from 3:13 - 3:57. Through our open window, we were awakened to the sweet sound of the Eastern Screech Owls calling which sounds much like a whinnying horse.

She returned for the day at 7:15 am and sat snug in the nest box with blustery winds blowing up to 40 mph outside. The two eggs are getting turned and rolled and arranged often.

The trees in our yard are all suddenly bursting with spring green leaves and pink and white blossoms.
Mrs. Owl sits in the doorway for the last hour of the day before flying off just at dark.
