19:28 5/3 Update: Mr. Carpenter just saw both fledged owlets and at least one parent. One fledgling is 30 yards east of the box up a maple about 50 feet. The other one is about 20 yards west of the box and up another maple about 40 ft. and Moon is sitting in the nest box opening. https://t.co/LWrTtCbNwa https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786541359391748307

17:57 5/3 Will Moon join his siblings tonight? Update from the cam host Jim Carpenter: the parents are both being vigilant and he thinks both Midnight and Star are up in the trees but the leaves are making it hard to find them. https://t.co/eK4srmbHTC https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786516039280325058

4/2/24 Watch as Star attempts to fly from the nest box roof to the nearby tree but just misses a landing.
Our cam host, Jim Carpenter, has seen the adults in the area keeping an eye on Star, and will check again in the morning for both Midnight and Star.

21:53 5/2 Moon is keeping an eye on things tonight and in the morning, cam host Jim Carpenter will look for Midnight and Star. https://t.co/JXqSdveIay https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786213577356943490

20:26 5/2 Star tried to fly to the tree to the left of the nest tree but did not stick the landing and can be seen falling toward the ground with wings out. This is not an uncommon occurrence with owlets and they will just climb back up the tree. https://t.co/Jhr9XiScvH https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786193586872053956

19:51 5/2 Star makes the leap to the roof. https://t.co/pEZ4kgwY59 https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786185423317799059

The eldest owlet is exploring the treetops! At 31 days old, Midnight stepped out onto the limbs in front of the nest box and then hopped to the top of the nest box while the female was on the porch. Eventually, the young owl ascended the hickory tree. https://t.co/i7zuTdv0hG https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786073433790443948

That makes two! At 31 days old, the middle owlet "Star" joins its sibling outside of the nest box on the night of May 1. Star eventually returned to the nest box, while its sibling ("Midnight") ventured on to climb up the tree on which the nest box sits. https://t.co/XM8emD7Kih https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786071384369566004

Watch the eldest owlet "Midnight" take its first step out onto the patio of branches in front of the Barred Owl nest box at 31 days old! At this age, Barred Owls aren't good fliers, but they climb well. Midnight continued its adventures the next morning... https://t.co/5MLj1DXJ6b https://twitter.com/WBU_Owls/status/1786070480249581663
