Baby Owl! OWLET!

 A little bit of nature at its best... In a nest!

Not far from home, Mark spotted this nest with doting parent. I could not be happier that he suggested we spend some time this afternoon to go play "I spy". 







Mark's second stroke of (unwitting) genius was taking Teddy with us.  Teddy enjoys little outings and apparently owlets enjoy golden retrievers. I called Teddy to my side in order to get that homely little baby to stare into my lens! 

Honestly... where would my photography hobby be without Teddy?! 

4 Days later and our baby is still on hold in the fledging department. Which means I got another shot at capturing his sweet face. 

No protective embrace from mamma today either. She was off finding little live things to push down his throat so that later, she could teach him how to cough up pellets of bones!




How many more chances will I get?! I always hope for one more. The sight of this little bundle of downy feathers makes me smile.
