Two flammulated owl chicks in the opening of their nest cavity having a look around.
British Columbia, Canada.
Canon R5 with Canon 600mm f4 III and 1.4x extender. Manual mode.
Awww. Are you a sleepy baby. Yes you are. :33
I love these guys, and I rarely see baby pics of them. I don’t recognize your name, so if you haven’t seen an adult, they are called flammulated for their smoldering flame like patterns. Here is what they will look like.
They are really small too, so that just makes them extra cute!

Aww the second pic of the chick sitting in someones hand. I can’t! What a lil cutie.
I’ve held some baby Screeches that are a smidge larger. I’d love to get some time with these guys, but I’m on the wrong side of the continent. Would love to meet one someday at least. I want to see those flammulations in person.
