May 10: Owlets
Kristen Lindquist
Took the boat shuttle across the harbor to Vinalhaven this foggy afternoon to meet up with our friend Kirk, who took us deep into the mossy woods on private property to see a Great Horned Owl nest with two fuzzy owlets in it. We also glimpsed both adults keeping a close eye on us, making sure we didn't get too close.
As if covered with lichen--
fuzzy owl nestlings
waiting in the fog.
