One Mature and One pre-fledged Great Horned Owl in one of the old GBH
nests on the opposite side of the bridge from the active GBH Rookery.
This is best seen from the Dam Observation Parking Lot using a scope, I
tried other closer locations under the bridge with poor results. The
nest is in the lower, down hill, group of nests. The mature bird could
have been blocking a view of a second juvenile.
Counted 23 GBH in the rookery, 12 sitting on nests.
A Great Egret was standing on a floating log in the middle of the lake.
