That is a great picture! I will have to look for the nest next time I walk under the bridge. I wonder if Buddy and I walked by the nest or an owlet and I never noticed because I was too busy looking at something else.

I think that family by the Playfields must be the ones I saw nesting nearby earlier this spring. One or both small owlets would sit out on a nearby concrete ledge in the sunshine when I walked by several times - the nest was just barely visible in a deep gap in the concrete understructure of the road bridge.Monique From: Theresa Allen <tmallen32...> Sent: Friday, April 26, 2024 2:18 PM To: <inland-nw-birders...> <inland-nw-birders...>; John Wolff <johnwolff66...> Subject: Re: [inland-NW-birders] Pullman Great Horned Owls I think these are different from the City playfields group, because it is a group of 3 owlets. I saw them again today around 9:30 and when I drove by again about 1 PM, they were still there. They like the mostly dead tree. I was able to get pictures and all 3 have downy heads. Is it likely that there would be two groups of owls in such close proximity? I don't know enough about them, but it is exciting to consider the prospect.

Monique, Theresa and everyone:
there has been a GHO family hanging out by the City playfields, in trees over the creek, the past few days. Adult and two owlets.
