All gone




My last three baby GHOs have now flown away. These photos show HAIRY, BUSHY and DITCH right after they jumped out of the transport crate and headed for the forest. All three of these babies came in before they could fly but learned quickly and after proving they could make live kills were ready for release to the wild.

Thanks to my friend Joyce who came along and ran the camera. A couple of them are a bit fuzzy because these young birds wasted no time in leaving. The one of BUSHY in the tree proves that great horned owls are well camoflaged when sitting in the right kind of tree. Can you see me now?
