  • "Breakfast for All" I'm not sure if Mom brought in a catch for each or ripped up one catch for all to enjoy. Mom is finishing up her portion which had feathers..
  • "Mom Gives the Look" As Bert and Ernie continue to eat, Mom pauses to give me the look. A one eye glance which seems to say... Back Off!! So I did..
  • "Bert Looks On" As Mom and Ernie share a tender moment. Its amazing to witness the affection these Owls show for each other.

  • "A Squirrel's Nightmare" Even I was a little intimated by his look.
