There&#39;s a chance their babies may have hatched, but I can&#39;t say 100% for sure yet — Bob seems to be more actively hunting during the day, but Helen isn&#39;t yet. But Helen made this one call that I&#39;ve only heard her make when she has owlets, so who knows! <br/><br/>#nostr #photography #owl #nature <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/257d1559e147b4874f47aa1d280a777ceabd4015a86140f10f99246d223bed1d.jpg"> 2026-06-06T00:55:22Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsplf6ytu2acs0e80j8mvlyjc5rp2ng4tsprjadlj8x2kru6qrxdsszyphfkdew64pqcw8h98rpp907m233398whj4kw28zcgy6ejedy5n8c8w2law In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstdzkmcq83akjpe76uhhsa6g9y42r0adux2mcflgfr7xmkjwmp6aqgnhaeu'>nevent1q…haeu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yep ☺️📸 Capturing moments like this is what I do daily.

The species is known for its owl-like forward-facing eyes with striking bright red irises. It is the only fully nocturnal bird of prey in its family, resting in trees during the day and hunting at night. It&#39;s primary food source is the long-haired rat (Rattus villosissimus), making its population size closely tied to rodent outbreaks.<br/><br/>#nostr #bird #photography <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/9a6b30277b45929dd2b82f2bca74233f431cb1f7727289d20a3a8132999482f7.jpg"> 2026-05-28T00:05:03Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszpcpkqg5vxnf8mtgp4ague7hcqna3e39pxmvf68plnpyfa6w4jpszyphfkdew64pqcw8h98rpp907m233398whj4kw28zcgy6ejedy5n8ceggdhy Ward&#39;s trogon showcasing its vibrant purple and scarlet plumage. This species is native to the northeastern Indian subcontinent, extending into Southeast Asia, including countries like Bhutan, India, and Myanmar. The male, pictured here, is easily identifiable by its wine-purple back, bright red belly, and distinctive blue eye-ring. These birds are typically found in mature tropical hill forests, where they tend to remain still on mid-level perches while foraging for insects and fruit.<br/><br/>#nature #nostr #bird <br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/1a416362f18071f694be1fec12dab8fef1fb3ac4db53f5dc937d04838987d550.jpg"> 2026-05-27T23:59:14Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs04f9u8grnnf7ja8gjmeh9kzf0jtqaur9dnjmusdl8cje6gkj69kszyphfkdew64pqcw8h98rpp907m233398whj4kw28zcgy6ejedy5n8c9593lw What&#39;s better than one cover girl??
