From a few weeks ago north of Denver, Colorado. This area had a ton of these cool little guys hanging out. Within view I believe there were at least four sets of parents and at least a couple dozen owlets between them.

Only one family was close enough for decent pics but that was enough and they provided their usual dose of fun and entertainment. Now they have all spread out and sightings will become more fleeting but I am happy with the images I captured of these summertime visitors to the plains.
