Great Horned Owlets

“Great Horned Owlets” color scrimshaw on ancient mammoth ivory bark by David Adams.  These fuzzy pair look like they will soon take flight.  The window polished into the ivory bark provides a perfect natural frame for Adams’ exceptional scrimshaw. Great Horned Owl young remain in the nest for about six weeks, then climb out onto nearby branches. They begin taking short flights at seven weeks, and can fly well at 9-10 weeks.
