OK...I've just done some reading on GHO's (I'm sure most of you have as well..)...I'm not as worried about nest choice now...while they prefer sheltered areas, its only the lucky GHO's that find them...They take over crow, hawk, etc. nests...as well as nesting on tops of buildings and on the ground...so I guess they are well equiped to handle the weather...

:sfthumbs: Thanks & Hi! Now it seems to me that rain has stopped, the sky is clear.. some wind. Our Great horned Owl has already been looking around instead laying down in her/his (?) position. :sfyea:

About 10 incubation days behind and everything seems to be ok at the nest.

The dawn of the new day.

Cam is running here again.

Looks like we are waiting for hatching of two eggs. I read that it takes about 26-35 days from GHO's egg to hatch. Today might be 27 days behind for that first egg.

Update from the Shandy Point home site


"2/23/2009

For those of you just joining us, we have baby owls. The mother hides them most of the time but every now and then you might see a baby stick its head out."


The ospreys return to this nest around the first week in March :roll:
