Prepping!!

Along with raking and blowing leaves fall at the homestead means it is time to prepare for the owls return to the nest box. Although they stay around all winter they rarely return to the box until it is time for mating. To start with Dave made the long climb up the ladder.

Making sure not to breath anything in! This year he decided to make some modification to the box so that next year it will be easier!



It was not an easy chore and Dave did a great job!


Dave searched and searched the Internet for a new type of camera that would hold up and have a better picture. The new one is much bigger so hopefully the owls and owlets will leave it alone!

A picture of the box on the TV as Dave adjusted the camera angle. It is a color camera so I am expecting some interesting viewing from the box around dinner time!!!! We switched over to the box after dark to see how good this camera was.....we are impressed. Not only are we providing shelter but also snacks to tide them over!!! :)




The VERY best part will be sharing it with these two little LOVES!!!



The CUTEST grand babies EVER!!!! xoxoxoxox
