Here are more beautiful photographs from Cindy Knoke!
Sleepy owlet Valentine wears his ❤ on his face. (Click to enlarge and see Valentine better).
Mama has left him, and it is his first day alone, out of his nesting box.
Valentine doesn’t know what to do,
so he decides to fly down near the human,
watch her out of one eye,
until he falls asleep, clinging to his cactus bed.
Cheers to you from Valentine the confused little owlet~
Note: We have a barn owl nesting box at The Holler, usually woodpeckers nest in it, but this spring a barn owl family actually moved in. Valentine is their chick. I kept an eye on him for his first 24 hours out of the box, which was easy because he seemed quite unafraid of me. I think he was a bit shocked and confused. He passed his second night last night, and I could hear him in the oak…

Valentine has a sibling! I saw them together last night! I am waiting now for them to show up again. They perch on top of the owl box at night. Thank you Charles for supporting our feathered friends & cheers to you!
