This afternoon I went to Harvey Laas' ranch in southern Waller County to
pick up some Barn Owl pellets he had collected for a class we will have next
week at Kleb Woods Nature Center. While there he and I went to his family
cemetery oak to check and see if the Great Horned Owls that live there were
nesting. Sure enough, in the bowl of this massive tree was a nest just as we
suspected. At the edge of the nest was a cast away egg. In the cup of the
nest below the mothers breast were two downy chicks somewhere in the 2-3
week old stage. It was a beautiful scene and the glare from the protective
mother was true ire. 
 

Bird watching has its moments.
