Look at the owl nest right now. Two HUGE chicks towering over a tiny one

This is also the first time I've seen the owl babies standing fully on their feet. Up until now, all the babies have been sitting on their butts and just scooting around on their feet.
Seriously. Isn't it amazing? I saw the puny one a few minutes ago. It's covered in fuzz now but still so tiny. It crawled back into the corner to snuggle under the other ones.
Maybe our barn owls will grow up to be like this one!

The baby owls are starting to look like those things that ran around with Witchiepoo on HR Pufnstuf
....... I can't remember what they were called, the vulture things (ahhh, childhood memories)

Just checked the great blue heron nest at Cornell Labs, and three chicks have hatched out of 4 or 5, I think. Here is a link of someone's pics of the chicks being fed: 4 29 12 am feeding - a set on Flickr But they are tiny balls of fluff, and it's hard to see any features.
The chat said there was an owl attack last night and Papa Heron fended it off.
