Great-horned Owlets - Day 22

There is only one owlet in this photo, but there are two in the nest. The other owlet appears to be shy, and tends to hide beneath mom or in the bottom of the nest.

Above: Here's the rarely photographed reclusive sibling that hates to be in the spotlight. I found him on the back side of the nest, crouching down and peering out through the twigs. Hilarious.

My best estimate as to when the owlets were born is March 14-17, meaning that in this photo taken April 8th, the owlets would be approximately 22-25 days old.
