Screech Owls in nesting box!

            I had the awesome opportunity to help check a nesting box for Eastern Screech Owls. The box needs repair so we had to see if any owls were in there. I opened it and saw these two beauties sleeping. Got my cell phone out and took this shot. I then went to pick the closet one up to check for eggs. She woke up and scampered to the back exposing two eggs. I quickly closed the box back up. If you look to the back right, you can see a dead mouse in the corner. The box will be repaired after the little ones fledge. Hopefully we can get baby pics sticking out of the hole.
