Thanks Carol, this is the second posting of the same owl. I posted a photo the day he was chased from his nest by a bunch of pesky crows. The photos I posted showed him on the ground. A week later, I found him about 100 yards from his nest up on top of a tree trunk that had been snapped off by high winds at some point in the past. If I can find the bird in another week, I will once again post an updated photo of its development.
