She only has ONE egg -

Thats pretty odd, owls have 2 or 3

Midnight Snack, Savannah
January 25, 2022

LadyOwl's mate brought a snack to the nest
https://youtu.be/pTJWqrrLxbM

Evidently we will only have one owlet.  Seems so odd, I wonder if there is a story.
This storm damaged tree was originally an eagle's nest.  Both owls and osprey have used it.

Snack time at Savannah
January 30, 2022

5 am  Lady's mate brought her a mouse - but
the moment he arrived she left for a minute or so.
He stood and waited for her to return, then fed her a mouse.

Pip in egg!

From Savannah FB page:

"Woo-hoo!! This is happening!! 'Pipping' is when the chick starts breaking through its shell. The resulting hole is the “pip” that the chick enlarges to finish hatching. This shot shows the female Great Horned Owl returning from a break and settling back down on the egg and we can see the pip clearly.  And now we wait -- maybe next time the female gets up there will be an owlet. 21:53 on 2/17"

O Linda - yay!  She may NOT get up again as the owlet emerges - she may remain brooding it over 24 hours - which of course - is frustrating. hahaha

I see she has a rat to feed her baby, so she knows whats coming

4.30 pm  Got a good peek at egg - big hole
We shud have a lil owlet by morning  :)

A hawk knocked Mom off the hatching this morning, which apparently is when the owlet was first seen.

(Edited to change my error of incorrect ID of hawk.)
