From Larry Strack

One of my favorite photos of a failed juvenile Great Horned Owl fledge from my archives of 2023. Owlet made the attempt, couldn’t fly to Mom’s tree, crashed in a bed of leaves. Mom flew over to the nearest tree and tried to coax it to climb up the tree to her. It sat for almost an hour and finally ran to the tree and quickly climbed to Mom. I was a rookie photographer at this time and missed catching the little one “running” up the tree. What an experience! Photos taken near northern Minneapolis, MN.
