An Owlet Adventure

June 9, 2018 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

I find it odd that a young owlet can look older than its parents. I think it is something about the forlorn and weary looking eyes. Maybe the owlet is thinking about all the dangers involved in leaving home. Learn more about the young owl’s challenges in the latest post on:

The Lioness

May 19, 2017 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

This week I was lucky enough to photograph a long-eared owl in the Arboretum. Can you determine this bird’s gender? Do you know where this species spends the winter? Do they migrate? Why would I title this post, The Lioness? Learn more at:

Have a great day on Union Bay …where lions wander through the city!
