We celebrated the Mid-autumn festival at my son’s school this evening and then went home and watched our extremely noisy neighbors. The first one seems to have fully fledged and there are two left. It has been awesome to watch this process up close, though not conducive to good sleep. #midautumnfestival #moonrabbit #barnowl #barnowlfledgling #owlfledgling #tytoalba https://www.instagram.com/p/B2Yt66DgcYa/?igshid=m6yf27z4do45

A few nights ago as we were watching the fledglings, a fresh-caught vole plummeted from the tree. It’s the first time we’ve seen a feeding go awry. Waste of a good vole! #barnowl #tytoalba #barnowlfledgling #owlfledgling #californiavole #microtuscalifornicus https://www.instagram.com/p/B2lCO0ngDMr/?igshid=jetyo9qtvpyy
