I am glad to see that the baby was able to return home. That's great! The baby kisses mom. Mom is happy. Thanks for your video. ❤

[@sidensvans67]

Wonderful .

Aww Owlet & Mom playing Owl games in the nest 💞 so cute. Owlet still has much down and short plumage is it not too early for fledging ?. Hope baby will be well protected and fed by Hanna & Hugo on the ground. Best luck Owlet ❤🤞🤞🤞. Did I hear the song of the European Oriol ? 🎶😊

[@Agnes-hm7iv]

Oh yes, you're right, an European Oriol is singing 🥰 Such a beautiful bird ❤

[@liznm-natur-channel]

Yes, Golden oriole is singing

[@cielavina739]

Mazajam cāļukam tik interesanti piedzīvojumi, aiz katras lapiņas slēpjas kāds kukainītis😊

[@Maimuke]

At least the owlet can get in the shadow now. It was getting very hot in the nest, the temperature has been exceptionally warm lately.

[@kathrynrussell5255]

I was watching it live and I thought 100% that Hanna was encouraging him to branch/fledge! No hanna, not yet!!!

[@liznm-natur-channel]

I agree! She showed our little one, how to do it.

[@scott2836]

Hmmm. This seems more like branching to me than fledging, as the baby didn’t really fly so much as hop. It did leave the nest, and I know that a lot of folks consider that fledging however it it done. It seems that owls, like eagles and hawks, will venture out to explore branches outside of their nests before taking their first flights if the setting allows it.

[@liznm-natur-channel]

It will be a long time before it can fly. There is no branching like eagles or hawks. It is still a fledgling.They learn to fly on the ground. Now it is time to explore the ground. They do not normally breed in nests, but on the ground. Unfortunately, the chicks never survived on the ground, so they built an artificial nest and hoped they would use it. And they did!

[@kathleenmccaffery1313]

How wonderful that is to have a nest built on the ground Liz!! Amen to that brainchild idea! 💡🌟🦉

[@sigitat3118]

Hope He will be fine🤞 it was a bit too soon for him,,,

[@ceegee777]

I hope it stays in the trees 🙏🏼

[@annaritaranalli1791]

Owlet looks almost as his precious mom

[@Hedi52]

The sweet owlet was not old and ready enough for this. But for sure he was lonely and eager to take this step.

[@Maimuke]

She was quite developed. I think she'll survive ❤

[@liznm-natur-channel]

It is old enough for this. They dont live in trees. Normally they are breeding on the ground

[@honusmom5144]

Still has a lot of fluff but I don’t know how the owlets are raised. How cute, chewing the tree knot. Good luck baby. 😊

[@kerrykestrowl6785]

Aww❤❤❤😢

[@backspacer92]

They grow up so fast 😭

[@silvias7090]

Yes i agree with Scott's well expressed comment about branching vs fledging. Still quite small and starting to explore....

[@liznm-natur-channel]

there is no branching with eagle owls! They usually breed on the ground. This is an artificial nesting aid because they have lost their brood to the year after year. We were hoping, that they will use it!

[@karolinka4497]

​@@liznm-natur-channel none of these 3 haven't survived last year? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJubioJpgLitjdEsi=Onw9yhRTqqyoHqc_ but what happened, they were big enough:(

[@garysinclair7878]

I just hope this one makes it. Last years 3 apparently did not. Does anyone know what happened to them?
