A Great Horned Owlet just seconds after its failed attempt to jump back to the nest ( about 8 feet)t where its mother had brought it a Muskrat. The owlet missed the nest and fell to the base of the tree where it stayed for about 20 minutes. A very scary ordeeal for the tike as it had spiraled down about 50 feet to the ground, breaking a few twigs on the way. It then started the long process of finding a way back to the heights. On day 2 it was approx 20 feet off the ground and had been soaked several times by the rains...its not going to be easy.... Canon 7D and 500F4 Ottawa ON
