Easter Owlets - The Video!

I found no Easter eggs, but something even better, a couple of young Easter owls! Such cute great horned owlets, who have just left the nest and are starting to explore the world. BY the way, if you ever see baby owls on the ground out of their nest like this, they are usually OK! Mom and dad are in a tree nearby, and the babies are strong enough to literally CLIMB back up the tree out of harms way... so don’t try to rescue them or take them away from their nest to a rescue center! Unlike other birds who wait until they can fly before leaving the nest, the owlets are usually just fine, as long as they are left alone by humans and off-leash dogs. If something big gets too close, they fluff up and click their beak as a warning... you can see/hear that in this video when somebody walked by as I was filming. I took a couple photos from a very safe distance with my telephoto lens, then quietly left them hidden in the bushes so they could avoid predators and other hikers. Hope you enjoy this Spring Excitement! Music: Quixotic Dreams, by me Video: Canon 90D DSLR, by me Editing: Final Cut Pro, by me
