GREAT HORNED OWL NEST

We took this picture at a range that is beyond the capability of our camera but thought if was worth posting on our site in spite of the poor quality. Even though Great Horned Owls are quite common in the semi-open country of Fillmore county we seldom actually find a nest-so this was a treat. We also have a this species currently hunting our driveway fields on an almost nightly basis. The Bald Eagles and Red-Tailed Hawks are also nesting in Fillmore cty now.
