Shep, I waited a while to capture this shot. You can see Bonnie with a piece of food and the little white top below.
I saw two little fluffy white tops!  ;D

Last night, chatters said there is definitely two owlets. There was two beaks reaching up to mom for food.
They are so low in the nest, I can only see the tops of their little fluff ball heads.  ;D

Watching this cam, is making me homesick for Kansas. We spent 32 years in Mike's hometown of Salina and I'm missing it.

I am still not getting a snip of owlets, but I did get Dad bringing a snack

3 pm  Mom groomed herself and I got peeks at the white fluffy owlets wiggling beneath her.
Maybe tomorrow they'll show themselves - I hope
