Mom Returns, Owlet Goes On Defense-Cam Three 🦉 3/20/22 21:55

As Mom returns to the nest from the Fairway Branch, her Owlet seems to be taken by surprise and goes into full defense mode. By clicking the beak, hissing, and puffing out to make itself look bigger. Mom seems to be looking for the Frog they ate earlier. She then flies back up to the branch as her Owlet is still on defense. They do not have a sense of smell, and Mom did not announce herself upon arrival. When she flies back up to the branch, she does let out a yip, and her Owlet seems to settle back down.
Left at 19:46 and Returned at 21:49.
