About Tyto alba. #259
On Thursday night, my friend Alejandro Morales found a nest of Barn Owls at his house in Santa Clara. Due to the afternoon strong winds, the nest felt down from a palm tree.
I was monitoring the activity from 11:00PM to 12 and saw their parents dropping off food at least 3 times in less than 1 hour. The babies are on the ground and due to their high vulnerability to predators; they will be taking to a nearby wildlife re-habilitation center.

Thank you Hano.
This pic is dedicated to you my friend.

Yamil, great about to go with another wonderful capture. I too hope that they are going to be survivors. Be well, Stan

Nice catch Yamil. Sure hope things work out for them. You know I've always thought Barn Owls were the most beautiful of the Owl family..As adults anyway. Looking at these 3 ugly guys it's hard to believe they will grow up to be so beautiful.
Again very nice work,
Bill

Nice story Yamil - Well presented... As everyone else notes, hope they all make out ok!! Like Bill said tho' - pretty hard to believe these gawky vulture-like little things turn out to be such an attractive end-result.
Well done - Congrat's!
Kerry
