Staring Saw Whet

Photo by Mike Lentz

Here is another Northern Saw Whet Owl in a different natural nest cavity.

This was probably the most rewarding spring in my nature photography journey! Working with a few other friends to accomplish many things that required a little knowledge, skill or just plain hard work.

This mother stayed on her nest of four babies for approximately 18 days - just like what the books say... can confirm that is accurate first hand! Then dad came in and fed them daily until they fledged!
