Whoooo are you? Barn Owlet Cam

March 6, 2011 11:12 AM

The Hungry Owl Project has rescued a couple of Barn Owlets and has placed them in a nest box complete with camera for your viewing pleasure on the grounds of the Marin Art and Garden Center. It is the 3rd cam at the bottom of the page. I have donated to Wildcare (their parent organization) but am not otherwise affliated with this program.

Forgot I wasn't on Reddit for a second and went to check the account creation date for an apparent novelty account. October 2010. I'll allow it.

While the live feed is cool, that ad beforehand was so obnoxious I muted the speakers.

Cute owls though. They look like they're wearing space helmets!

The dutch Vogelbescherming (a bird protection organisation) has a website with some nice webcams. (Site is in dutch, of course).

Just tuned in to see some cuteness, and instead got an owlet chomping down on a mouse, tail dangling out of his mouth. Aah nature, red in tooth and claw. And beak.

Well owls do eat mice, it's their job! I think they are adorable, thanks for posting this.
