Day 80 - Molly and McGee the Owls

This is what my focus has been on for a few days now.  Molly is a mother Barn Owl that is sitting on her 5 eggs and McGee is the father Barn Owl.  They are being followed by a live webcam.  For those that know me, owls are something that has interested me since I was about 5 years old.  I have more things in my owl collection than you could imagine!

Anyways, today was the day the first egg hatched!!  It was so exciting to watch!  Haley and Paige were just as excited and glued to my computer screen.

So... here are some pictures I took of my computer screen and then cropped in.  They aren't great quality but you can see pictures of the newest owlet addition Max!!!

Finally... if you are as interested as I am... the website to watch it http://www.sportsmansparadiseonline.com/Live_Owl_Nest_Box_Cam.html
You can also view so many other live webcams including an African waterhole which has been cool and lots of other birds, deer and other animals!

Just a funny picture of Molly with her head turned sideways!  LOL

This is an upclose picture of the first egg and little Max working his way out.
