The Three Amigos

[Guy Schmickle]

These three Great Horned Owlets were nicely stacked up on top of each other in their saguaro cactus nest - Scottsdale, AZ.

Wow - the line up here is delightful. Great catch.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Wow, just amazing, owl eyes are fantastic and three pair like this with a great background is a whole new level.

 

[Darcy Grizzle]

That is fantastic, what a catch!

 

[JimFox]

What a great find Guy! To find an owl in the wild like that would be so awesome.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Nice catch. Huddling in the cactus ought to hurt

Nice catch. Huddling in the cactus ought to hurt

They've got nesting material in that cavity to prevent that. Besides, all those needles keep most predators at bay...although there was a coyote wandering about below hoping one would fall out. Mama owl wasn't a fan of that and occasionally dive bombed it. That was quite interesting to watch!

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
