Barn Owlets on the Nest

Tonight Kay and I visited Tim Mellema and Keri at their new place on Tanwax Lake. They have a wonderful property nestled between two huge estates with > 1000 feet of lake frontage and are remodeling several old buildings. In the overhang space between the roof and the porch roof of the guest cottage is a triangular opening and in the cavity is an active barn owl nest. We were able to hear and see two whitish downy owlets begging, but the parents did not show before we left a little after 10 PM.
