Juvenile Great Horned Owl

Juvenile great horned owl

Still a baby but it has fledged. Last time I saw this guy or gal it was still in its nest with its sibling and mom. Pop was in a nearby tree watching. On Friday when I took this photo, I didn't see mom or pop...but I'm pretty sure they were watching.

I am linking with I'd Rather B Birdin'  HERE.

    Superb capture, EG. I don't know much about birds, but as soon as I saw the photo, it registered that this must be a very young owl. I would love to observe it in person.
