Description
An Owlet of The Great Horned Owl, Scientific name: Bubo virginianus. He was probably out of his nest for the first time or a few days only. I saw it hopping from branch to branch, while stretching the wings. As the mamma returns to the nest, baby got very excited and tried a longer flight to reach mummy. The result was inevitable. The owlet fall about 50' to the ground. It recovered from the shock and walked into the nearby bush a few minutes latter while the mamma kept watching from the top.
