Fabian, the father, went missing March 31. Another male began visiting, in what Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife officials are describing as a "territorial dispute." Who knows where Diana is tonight, but she has to eat sometime. I wonder whether she has stopped trying to keep those last three eggs warm, perhaps knowing the life inside them has slipped away.

Lin Murray of the Hawk and Owl Trust said: ‘An owl, like all living creatures, deserves respect. It’s sad that people were laughing at it and probably unknowingly adding to its anxiety.

"When a Snowy Owl wearing a GPS tracking device was found dead near Martha’s Vineyard, many people became concerned and wanted to know why this bird and so many others were dying. Tufts University veterinary center and Norman Smith, who is an expert on Snowy Owls, decided to find out what caused the bird’s death. They named the bird Sandy Neck."

Cam is running, just need to get the web page up. They are working on it! 

They are "Sisters"!! LOL, glad she is feeling better!! 

Daddy!!



from fb! Not sure about the cam yet, if it's on!

Anyone know what's up at the moment at Montezuma? I want to get a sister outa the house for a bit soon, and we were thinking we'd head that way. I would really appreciate any info/what to look for/where. Thanks!

Are you back in ROC??  Was this a sneak attack???

Beauty in alert modeDC on eggs

OMG, I can't imagine 6!!    Food, food and more food!!

Yay! Love babies!!

Belle returned at the same moment ODNR called. How's that for serendipity? ODNR was glad to hear that she's flying and that both birds are incubating the eggs. As others here have said, the state would intervene only if Belle took a turn for the worse. For now, I'll keep them updated (for some reason, no one in ODNR has a FB page!) and we'll go from there.

Bev posted some pics of her left eye yesterday on BCAW and it's partially open.  She showed a pic of her injuries to an in-the-know biologist who said he's seen worse and that it should get better over time (barring any bad infection). With Allen hunting for her right now, it's a good thing, allowing her to rest and heal. I can't get the cam either.  

I've done everything to try and get that cam to open! It just won't! I have all the plug-ins, reinstalled the new quicktime and NADA!! It's just one of those cams!!

Same here and last year I was able to get it no problem. 

Frustrating!!

  Awe!

Belle is on the eggs. As I drove up — and I know this is anthropomorphizing — I could think of no word but "valiant" to describe the sight of Allen riding the near-gale winds, going on the hunt.
