Fuzzy ball of fluff

Fuzzy ball of fluff
This little Great Horned owlet was seen in one of the parks in the city. It had apparently fallen out of the nesting tree and couldn't climb back up, of course. Hopefully, it will survive its lower-level existence until it has grown enough to be able to at least fly a little. I was told that the adults have been feeding it, which is good news, and it seems to be well and healthy despite being out on its own for two nights. Both adults are nearby and keeping good watch over it.
