chaka the owl

Our littleScreech Owl

For my birthday last March, ladyjoanna got an owl box for me to put up in our tree, and this summer I put it up… not long after it seemed as though an Eastern Screech Owl began using it. Now she comes back almost every day to use it. Well, we assume it is a female. I think they are the nest hunters, and with any luck she’ll raise some owlets out of the thing.

So, Levi gets as excited about it as ladyjoanna and i do… we asked him what he wanted to name the owl and he went through a short list of made up names that he seems to be working on… the first was “chaka” then it moved to this word… umm… “shaysh” … another favorite is “futah”; the spellings of some of these loses the toddler accent, but maybe you get the idea. lady-jay wanted to call her Gretel, which I thought was fitting.

Anyway, we’re glad to have this owl share our yard with us…

New Pictures Available!

So, my old software for displaying pictures kinda blew up. This is now a static set of images, movies (don’t forget the movies! they are usually worth the downloading time) and html… should be safer all around. Whenever there are new ones I’ll put up a message with a link for them…. otherwise check the sidebar for the main pictures link.
