Description
Barred Owlet by Christina Rollo. The Barred Owl's nest is often found in a tree cavity, excavated by pileated woodpeckers. They may also take over an old nests made by hawks, crows, or squirrels. The Barred Owl is a permanent resident, but may wander after the nesting season. If a nesting site has been suitable in the past it is possible they will reuse it. In the Northeast US, 2-4 eggs are laid in mid-April. Eggs are brooded by the female and hatch about 4 weeks later. Young owls fledge four to five weeks after hatching.

Thank you! This baby owl was beautiful and it was my first time seeing one in the wild! The Barred Owls don't seem very shy, this one posed quite well.
