Months ago, I pried back the corner of a piece of metal siding on our stable
to make a peep hole for viewing our owl box. Fruitlessly checked it every day
for many weeks. Quit even checking for pellets daily after so long. Then,
after seeing Steve Tyson’s post about Barn Owls in his yard, I decided to
check the peep hole this morning. Saw 2 young owls peeping back at me. Tried
a photo on automatic. Saw nothing on the screen. Tried another. Still
nothing. Tried a flash. Saw eyes and nothing more. Walked on in the back
entrance to try again. The owls immediately withdrew within their box the
moment I walked in. Thought I had nothing, but after downloading, I upped the
exposure the maximum amount and got poor, but readable images on the 2 taken
without flash. Flash one was blurry. Even if this turns out to be my only
opportunity to capture the little guys, something is better than nothing.
