Those babies are huge ! Thank you from Michigan. Thanks to some chickadees I saw a GHO on a walk thru woods near my home in daytime with my lab. Beautiful and about two feet tall !
I wish my nest platform would be utilized by great horned owls. I even built the nest for them since they don’t build their nest themselves. Nothing but squirrels the last few years.
Encountered a great horned owl 2 weeks ago during the day in a park in central Kansas. He was there in a heartbeat when I let my tiny 3lb terrier off leash to run. I had to scare him off, I'm sure they are VERY HUNGRY by mid Feb
I used a Nikon D500 and a 600mm f/4 lens, that I set up on a tripod, started the video and then walked away. Unfortunately I can only capture 30 minutes of video at a time.
It's 2x2 feet. I did some research before I built it and that was what I found as the recommendation. Normally they use an old hawk nest, so this tries to simulate that.
I wish I could set up a live camera, but the location is far from electricity, and a cellular connection to create a live feed would cost me way too much.
Hey Eric! I have an Owl Box in my weeping willow. The owls have come back for three years now and I'm hoping to set something up exactly like you did. Any chance you'd be willing to give me some information on how you got this done and what equipment you used? Beautiful video by the way.
These are such precious little babies 😍
A mother’s love is truly magical.
Great devoted parenting by mom owl 😘💜💜💜

Great video, cheers
Hello Eric, is it possible to know What kind of camera did you use. Amazing to see baby Great Horned Owl on nest !!!
I used a Nikon D500 and a 600mm f/4 lens, that I set up on a tripod, started the video and then walked away. Unfortunately I can only capture 30 minutes of video at a time.
Solutes to all the mothers of world!
QUE BELLEZA DE AVE!!! ES PRECIOSA!! ME FASCINA. EN CHILE TAMBIEN TENEMOS BUHOS EL TUCUQUERE Y OTROS MAS
I'm so in love with all 3.
Great video. So, do the 'Great Horned Owls' prefer an open next like yours? Or can I build a Box type structure.?
My understanding is that normally Great Horned's use other bird nests, like hawk nests. Everything I've read says to build them platform, open nests.
'
aaww very beautifully owl and 3 baby owls
"How dare you show your face here with no mouse! Do we look like hunters? Go away and don't come back without FOOD!"
Very nice video; what are the dimensions of your box and did you pre-fill it with twigs or just let the owl do it?
it's 2x2 feet and I did fill it with sticks. Great Horned Owls normally take over old hawk or crow nests
@@EricPreston Thank you very much!
Seems like such a small nest considering how large the chicks will eventually get.
*Im building an owl nest box for Barred owls or great horned owls I hear nearby.. Anyone know the best height to mount it for nesting?*
Cool🤗
Hi,
What’s the dimension of this platform if you can share this info please. Thank you 🙏🏻
Awesome video, thanks for sharing.

@@EricPreston Thank you sir.
Great job on the nest and cam! Where is this geographically?
South central Wisconsin
Is it true that Owls are 100% silent when flying?
Yes that helps for hunting animals like mouse rat or other
not 100% silent but pretty much undetectable. Even with specialized microphones.
Will it go live soon.💕

Beautiful video by the way.
I used a Nikon D500 and a 600mm f/4 lens that I set up, turned on the video and walked away.
Where was this shot?
Unfortunately the GHO attacks and kills other raptor chicks that pose no threat to them or their chicks.
Baby hoos
