2011 Golden Gate Park
Read More1 / 53
May 26, 2011: Sheri took me to Golden Gate Park at 5:30 AM to see the resident great horned owl family of 6 (4 fledglings and 2 parents). The sights were so amazing, I returned late that afternoon to see the action at dusk. First up was this red-tailed hawk nest. Mom was home feeding junior. In the morning, the chick was standing tall, but here he/she is hunkered down in the deep nest getting dinner. It seems there's only 1 live chick here this year. (Update June 2: there are actually 2 huge chicks in this nest getting ready to fledge.)
