Yes, it happened again. Another 85 mile round trip to pick up DITTO (in front) who just had to follow BUMP down to the road. This smaller baby GHO weighs four ounces less which is a great deal when they are so small. He's also hurting a bit more, breathing hard this morning. I did find out that there is yet a third baby in the nest, hopefully that one now has enough room to stay put under mom.
In the meantime they are eating whole mice and both will be given to SEEDY when I know they're out of danger from any damage because of the nosedive and they're ready for fostering. Oh yes, the bald eagle in the background is fostering them right now so they have something soft to cuddle up to. As they already know they're owls it won't matter if that's a different species.
