How many owlets are there in this nest of Long-eared owls in Missoula, Montana? Looks like 3 here in this photo, but what about the fuzzy feathers behind the mother? Some viewers say there are 6. Long-eareds can lay up to 10 eggs! At 2 weeks old, the chicks are really growing. Chicks start out white, but will adopt a gray-colored plumage at the time their juvenile flight feathers begin to form. Learn more and watch the action on live cam. |
