Crappy cell-phone photo of young flammulated owl. |
Distance: 195 miles
Fare: three young flammulated owls, whose aspen-trunk nest was brought crashing down by a rural Huerfano County homeowner who said that he had been cutting trees along his power line.
Two of the owlets seemed vigorous. One stayed curled up in the nest and never moved. It may be the one that does not survive.
We brought them to the Raptor Center late in the afternoon. Since the little owls chiefly eat insects, the director was trying to locate some crickets, stat!
I will post an update in a few days if I can.

Hope they make it. I love those little flamms.
