The owls are wild.


You play poker with Carlos?

One of the chicks seems to be trying to sit on the unhatched egg. Some maternal instincts kicking in perhaps.

yeah, do you know him? I don't 'know' him, just while we were playing he was being asked about them, and he started talking, so i asked and he gave me the link.

just tell him gpokr. he'll know


EDIT: it's online poker. not in real life.

Did you win?

I don't know Carlos personally, but certainly respect what he and his wife have done to promote bird awareness.

Below is a video on TheWeatherChannel of Molly's owlet Max hatching.

I'm so mesmerized by Molly and her Owlets!

I see a couple are standing up now. And it's getting a bit crowded.

The oldest apparently can help feed themselves a little bit now. Molly was sleeping and a couple were raiding the "pantry"!


I was reading the comments and came across a link to a barn owl taking a bath. It's not Molly or McGee, but it's sooooo cute! Gotta love nature!


There is no sound other than music. But it's appropriate!

I love that owl bath video...
Dancing Queen.


The picture of Molly and her fast growing owlets says it all.

Great timing for me to check this out for the first time: the mommy owl just brought a mouse to her babies.

Very funny! But I'm not sure I'd give up my sleep to take a shower...

I just love how he twists and turns, waving his wings in the water.

Smart bird though! He knew that there would be water at some point, so he sat and waited. I wonder how many times he's showered there without them having noticed.

Molly has been missing since yesterday evening.
The owlets are restless and hungry.

This is very worrisome.
Be OK Mama Molly.
