The inevitable


When I returned from the Everglades I went to check on our resident owlets. There was the nest with both Today and Tomorrow still sitting there. The nest was stripped and part of it was hanging down. They barely had anything left of it. You could see all of them now. Mom, (Yesterday), and her two little ones are having a last moment altogether. Within hours Today, who's wings are on the ready, left the nest to go out on his own. Frankly I'm conflicted about the whole thing. I'm excited for Today's journey into the world yet sad to see him go.


A big brother's goodbye......
