Out this morning looking for a new nest. Found both male/female owls but could not locate the nest as female was not on it at the time. Will try back later. Always amazed how they can twist the head around.

Very nice find Pauhana, and pretty good capture to boot.
They amaze me too with their ability to turn their heads. It hurts my neck just to look at it. :)

Thanks to all. Going to try again sometime this week to locate the nest. Weather here today stinks. Blowing 20 - 30 mph
