Bonnie & Clyde 4-13-24. Restocking Bonnie's Cache After a Slow Night; Annie Swallows a Rabbit Leg.

Thank you, Farmer Derek, for the live cams, allowing us to observe wildlife on the farm, and Bonnie & Clyde, Great Horned Owls ❗️

3-19-24: Name announcement: Owlet #1 - Annie Oakley; Owlet #2 - Wyatt Earp

Video opens with the one delivery early morning on the 13th. Wyatt receives the bird prey and swallows it. That evening, it's time to restock the pantry. Clyde apparently caught a big rabbit, brought in one section at a time by Bonnie. Annie failed to swallow a rabbit leg brought in. Later, Bonnie brought the other rear leg, and this time Annie is able to swallow it. Bonnie has some beautiful flights, one straight at the camera, then the flight out from close to the camera. Bonnie also has a cool flight in with the main section of rabbit, then conducts a feeding for Annie and Wyatt. Time stamps below, if interested. Click on any time stamp to advance to that part.
