MOLLY THE OWL & THE OWL BOX

Did you ever wonder what goes on in an owl's nest? Some folks in California put up an owl box and attached a camera to "peek" inside. An owl family has inhabited it. Molly and her mate McGee started their family. Millions of people have been watching as the eggs hatched. Six eggs were laid and four hatched successfully.

If you'd like to see the owlets progress, go to:

With the help of an infrared camera for night viewing there is 24 hour video. It can be somewhat dramatic and/or unpleasant when McGee delivers his catches of the night. But it is an amazing window into nature.
