Chris updated his blog shortly before 4 AM 3/17..

Mme. Owl Prepares the Nest Box
 
A female eastern screech owl visited my nest box this morning. I noticed the visit entirely by chance around 3:15 AM, and she stayed another 20 minutes, while I watched her performing actions characteristic of a female preparing to nest – namely pushing around the bedding material on the floor of the box to create a depression in which eggs could be laid.

My screech owls may be running later than usual, but it appears there's still a very solid chance they'll be nesting in the box.

And if that happens, the screech owl cam' will return.
