Eastern Screech Owl babies are hatching this time of year. After 30 days of incubation, the hatchlings will remain in the nest for another month, being fed by their parents. Sadly, these tiny owls are in steep decline. Consider installing a nest box on your property, as they adapt well to human presence.

The babies have exceeded the size of Mom’s belly patch!

          When I saw the comment I had to think about it to see if I really did get the grammar wrong or if it was just a reference to this! 😆

          I do believe I was wrong. I also typo-ed a date, making it 2925, so it must have been a rough morning.

            To be clear, the correct usage in this case would be: “Who is keeping whom warm.”, though I hope the joke came across more than the “correction”. 🤓🙇🏽‍♂️

          Who hoom whoo hoo whoooom whom?

          As you can see, the phrase in its original Hūüm dialect loses a great deal in translation.
