[EBB Sightings] Livermore Barn Owls

I checked out the barn owls nesting in Livermore this
evening - thanks to Bill Clark for mentioning it
(directions are in his email, or just email me if you
deleted it).

I saw one adult and three owlets.  The third owlet
only showed up in one photograph; only two were
regularly visible.  They were all still groggy when I
arrived around 6:30 but by 8:00 they were perked up
and ready to roll, so I left them alone.  They were
very tolerant of me; they seemed used to people
looking at them. In chatting with a few passersby it
seemed they have local celebrity status. 

Here are four pictures I took:

I'm sure I'll be going back again soon.
