It takes a long time to raise a family of owlets, so the great horned owl begins early in
the year. In January and February, or as late as March in the North, the male calls to the
female with a resonant hoot. The female is larger than the male. She sometimes reaches a
body length of twenty-two to twenty-four inches, with a wingspread up to fifty inches. To
impress her, the male does a strange courtship dance. He bobs. He bows. He ruffles his
feathers and hops around with an important air. He flutters from limb to limb and makes
flying sorties into the air. Sometimes he returns with an offering of food. They share the
repast, after which she joins the dance, hopping and bobbing about as though keeping time
to the beat of an inner drum. Owls are poor home builders. They prefer to nest in a large
hollow in a tree or even to occupy the deserted nest of a hawk or crow. These structures are
large and rough, built of sticks and bark and lined with leaves and feathers. Sometimes owls
nest on a rocky ledge, or even on the bare ground, even to occupy the deserted nest of a
hawk or crow. The mother lays two or three round, dull white eggs. Then she stoically setdes
herself on the nest and spreads her feather skirts about her to protect her precious
charges from snow and cold. It is five weeks before the first downy white owlet pecks its
way out of the shell. As the young birds feather out, they look like wise old men with their
wide eyes and quizzical expressions. clamor for food and keep the parents busy supplying
mice, squirrels, rabbits, crayfish, and beetles. Later in the season baby crows are taken.
