Great Horned Owl Nest - WCR 15 and Harmony Road

[Dave Ruane]

There is an interesting Great Horned Owl nest just north of the intersection of WCR 15 and Harmony Road. Interesting because it is so high in a lone, stately cottonwood and is directly above CR15. The adult is clearly visible all day and at least one juvenile recently. This morning there was a partly eaten Eurasian Collared Dove on CR15 right below the nest.

I hope the young one is careful when he begins branching.  Last year I found a young one that was run over below a nest that was above the street.  Big enough to wander outside the nest, but not a fledged owl.  It was sad to see.
