Check out this little cutie! He was (and still is) too scared to move off the branch he landed on. My guess is it is his first flight. He's been up there quite some time. Of course, some nosy human had to take his picture He was a little camera shy:54:

My son would have gone crazy if he was able to see this little one! (we are avid birders here and have yet to see an owl in our area).

Thanks for sharing!

There is an impressive variety of birds around your way, April! And to catch a fledging owl on what was likely one of his first flights is incredible! Thanks for sharing.
