I want sssssssmoooooreeeee! 
 Daily Photo      Friday, 8/14/09

What are the payoffs to staying at a campground with no electricity, running water or any luxury whatsoever? Well for one... you get to be close and personal with wonderful animals like these owl babies. I love these owlettes, I can't get enough. I was lucky enough to watch these two guys from when they first peaked out of their heart shaped tree nest, to when they were flying branch to branch.

At one point when they left the nest, they were pretty far apart... a couple of hundred yards maybe and the mom sat and watched one and the dad watched the other. When I woke the next morning, they were side by side on the same tree branch. This was amazing as they could barely fly. They just waddle over to another tree in the middle of the night. By now these guys are flying around and learning to hunt.


Another great reason to rough it: to watch your friends rough it. :) Here is Laura and the smore photo. This was an event. I don't see the allure with smores, maybe its the whole I don't like chocolate thing.

As a professional photographer, I am ashamed to admit that I took this with my Blackberry camera phone. It was after hours.
