Nice catches. Nice to find an "accessible" nest.

Thanks and absolutely. In both case the nests were in the yard.

There's always someone putting on a show when the camera comes out; just like my little brother.

Thanks Andy. And to add to the story, the adult owl is the same one as last year. I zoomed in on her eyes and the lower left eyelid has a scar in the same place. I'm not sure what the scar was from or how old it is, but it's interesting to see the same bird return to the exact same nest.

Nice shots Jeff. Love the first one for the drama it creates.
