Great horned owl owlets stay relatively dry in the nest

With rains having been a constant annoyance in the days leading up to this image, these young ones had it relatively easy. Mama had found a nice nest that was somewhat sheltered from above by tree branches, allowing them to avoid the worst of the rain. I suspect this will have been the last picture of these two I will have gotten as by the time I get to the spot again, they will have likely fledged.
