Amadeus - The Saga Continues...

On our way back from Cape Town on Saturday, we stopped in at Spier to check up on that baby barn owl we saved from certain death. He's growing like a weed! He's been put in the same box as the older bird (who is 6 weeks older than him) that I saw when I dropped him off. Older Bird is very protective over the baby, and grooms him and protects him from anything that comes near.

So, like any good parent, I took LOADS of pics. And here are a few. Although he's by no means pretty yet, he's a whole lot better-looking than he was. Wing feathers started to grow in a few days ago!
