    Default Barn Owl Update

    This is a good time to to look at the Barn Owl web cam: Hayward Area Recreation and Park District

    The babies are so big that Mama can't possibly hide them anymore... and they aren't pretty, but they will be later. I think its possible some may have died. Earlier this morning, I could see two really big ones and two smaller ones. There's quite a range of sizes according to order of hatching.

    The eagles are doing well, there are still three babies. The red-tailed hawks and herons still don't have any hatched eggs, last time I looked.

    Well, if you don't get a look at the owl babies today, make sure you do tomorrow when the light is still good... they are really impressive! And yes, the eagle babies are looking good. And to think we still have two more nests of babies to watch!

    Oh, man, I just looked at the eagles again and they look like they've grown since this morning! Must be the camera angle and they are closer to it. But they do look bigger than I thought!

    The owls are so big/tall and I agree with you Anne......they are not very pretty.
    It's amazing (with all of the bird cams we are watching) that they can get so big in such a short time.
    .......and boy can they eat

    Well, just look at their beautiful mother... they look like little monsters now, but they will look like her eventually!
