Great Horned Owl nest


Great Horned Owls (Bubo virginianus) are nesting in the woods at Celery Bog Park. The nest is in the middle of the picture above, high up in a big beech tree. It's in a conspicuous place, easy to find.



Here is a view of the woods, looking west, near the east entrance. The base of the big beech tree can be seen on the left. In the background is the wooden boardwalk built for the foottrail over the wet land.
