Preening and straightening

Here is a short clip of the OwlBabies after a long night feasting on rats and mice. The parents have begun bringing them live prey to give them experience in dispatching their own food. The parents invariable drop a few enroute to the nest, some land on the roof and skitter away to escape or sometimes get re-caught. This time of their development we call "The Rain Of Rats". We do what we can with traps, the ones we catch in them we toss up into the tower and they get quickly eaten sight unseen...
