Subject: [Tweeters] Nisqually NWR - Five owl day

Saw all three owlets and both adults today. One owlet was on a limb directly above the dirt path/road near the 2013 nest tree. The female was in the 2013 nest tree cavity the entire time I observed. Interesting behavior, almost seemed as if she was preparing for a new brood.

The adult male was across the Nisqually river boardwalk about 100 yards from 2013 nest tree. The other two owlets were very active flying from limb to limb and on one occasion making it all the way to tree limbs on the rivers edge, but never far from mom.
