For those of you, like me, were on pins and needles wondering if Mama Owl was going to return… she did. Whew. Seriously, guys, I feel like it’ll be any day now when they jump to a tree and I won’t be able to document them any more.

For now… I have a few snaps from this morning…

I plan to check on her again around sunset as per usual lately.

Like I said last year, this really does feel like Inktober, where I throw myself in headlong and the rest of my life is put on hold… and I start to feel the strain of it all. I’m excited and having fun, but man am I tired. I’ve been trying to come up with a fun portmanteau for this time of year owl documenting… Owlebruary… Owlarch… what’s a good name for half of February, half of March? I’m not a word-smith clearly. Anyway, I’ve got life stuff to attend to before today’s photoshoot.

Until next time…
