Finally! Great Horned Owl nest is occupied

Finally! This owl’s nest has historically been an active and successful one but I had not seen anyone home since the spring. Today mom is finally manning the roost. No sign of dad but he was likely nearby. This isn’t a great nest to see much at now as it is up very high. However, in a couple months or so, if all goes well, little ones should become visible.
