Jodi,this has been in our paper the last week or so and i forget to go look at it.I live in Oceanside,and i understand there are a couple more here. A couple of years ago one of our weekly columnists set up a camera on a hummingbirds nest outside his bathroom window,that was interesting as well. My #1 son when he was young hand raised an owl from a baby to an adult,also a hawk and a possum.We live on the edge of a canyon and there were always babies falling from the nests. Yes the humane society knew about it,and even saved mice for his owl,and found his possum a couple times when it got away,and returned them back to him free of charge.Both he and #2 son used to help out at the humane society back then,this was in the 60'early 70's before the HS got so uppity,and political.JMO Kathi

I love watching Owl Cams. This is Sydney before her six eggs hatched. She now has owlets of various sizes because the hatch dates are sometimes days apart. I have done some Photoshop magic to the pic. Jodi-

I thought of them frequently today. Don't remember where I was when I heard the news though. A lump in my throat and tears in my eyes didn't go away for a long long time. I still can't reconcile it.

I hesitate to share, but here it is. Living in a nyc apartment there never is enough living space. When we moved here we bought this bed. It is the BEST! Even though it’s a 3 bedroom, we double this space up. It’s the office during the day and at night it’s our bedroom. We put a sliding door on one doorway and have thick curtains on the other. We have the trunk to store the pillows during the day
