It takes a long time to raise a family of owlets, so the great horned owl begins early in the year. In January<br />
and February, or as late as March in the North, the male calls to the female with a resonant hoot. The female<br />
is larger than the male. She sometimes reaches a body length of twenty-two to twenty-four inches, with a<br />
wingspread up to fifty inches. To impress her, the male does a strange courtship dance. He bobs. He bows. He<br />
ruffles his feathers and hops around with an important air. He flutters from limb to limb and makes flying<br />

<br />
sorties into the air. Sometimes he returns with an offering of food. They share the repast, after which she joins<br />
the dance, hopping and bobbing about as though keeping time to the beat of an inner drum. Owls are poor<br />
home builders. They prefer to nest in a large hollow in a tree or even to occupy the deserted nest of a hawk or<br />
crow. These structures are large and rough, built of sticks and bark and lined with leaves and feathers.<br />
Sometimes owls nest on a rocky ledge, or even on the bare ground. even to occupy the deserted nest of a hawk<br />
or crow. These structures are large and rough, built of sticks and bark and lined with leaves and feathers.<br />
Sometimes owls nest on a rocky ledge, or even on the bare ground. The mother lays two or three round, dull<br />
white eggs. Then she stoically settles herself on the nest and spreads her feather skirts about her to protect her<br />
precious charges from snow and cold. It is five weeks before the first downy white owlet pecks its way out of<br />
the shell. As the young birds feather out, they look like wise old men with their wide eyes and quizzical<br />
expressions. They clamor for food and keep the parents busy supplying mice, squirrels, rabbits, crayfish, and<br />
beetles. Later in the season baby crows are taken. Migrating songsters, waterfowl, and game birds all fall prey<br />
to the hungry family. It is nearly ten weeks before fledglings leave the nest to search for their own food. The<br />
parent birds weary of family life by November and drive the young owls away to establish hunting ranges of<br />
their own.<br />
