Tucked in a tree sit two wise old owls.
Safe and warm….waiting.
Waiting for the sun to rise.
Waiting for the sun to set.
Waiting for the birth of their babes.
Who one day may also become a wise old owl.

Thanks for sharing this with your readers Jonathan.
Wow, what stunning photos and words to match.
I’m so fortunate to be able to enjoy these owls. Thank you so much Miriam.
You’re welcome
I cannot get over these images, Emily. The camouflage is astounding and their expressions are priceless!
It truly is incredible how they blend in Jane. Thank you so very much.
the framing of the yawning owl is awesome –
It’s her favorite nesting hole Hannelie. This is at least the fourth year she’s raising her young there. Thank you.
What a lovely couple, Emily. Love this post. 🙂
Thank you so much.
A neat sight…If you don’t miss them because of the amazing camouflage. You have the coolest places to visit.
You are too sweet – a lot of studying, following other people and exploring. So worth it. Thank you!
