A Great Horned Owl owlet peers out through a gap in its nest in the cavity of an old tree. Remnants of a meal hang out in front of it.

This little guy / gal kind of had an evil look as it eyeballed me back in April. This was on my first visit to this site and I didn’t get a good view of the three little ones that day but it was pretty exciting nevertheless.

The parents have apparently chosen this spot for their home for a couple of years now which is somewhat surprising as it is along a pretty busy bike and walking path through suburbia. I will definitely be going back to check it next spring.

"I see you out there!"
