While we are doing the owl thing, here are a couple recent images of Great Horned Owls. I don't know if this the only fledgling from this nesting but my experience in this area where I found this bird is that the parents only raise one offspring per year.

Barred Owl
I have been hearing lots of calling from Barred Owls late at night in recent weeks. Makes me think they probably nested in the area this year since it sounds like several birds. This photo is from this Spring on a day I didn't find anything to photograph. This bird was on the side of the road as I made my way back home.

Spotted Sandpiper and Chick
I wasn't expecting to find Spotted Sandpiper chicks quite as early as I found this one. One of four at the time which is the usual clutch size. I was possibly expecting to find the adult on eggs since it's a location they have nested at during most recent years. They were probably a couple days old at this time.
