Arrived at the park and headed out to the island to see if I could view the 2 new baby great horned owls I watched emerge from their palm tree nest for the first time a few days earlier. I found the pair perched high in a pine tree and quickly got a few pics before moma owl let me know it was time to leave. I then did my usual 2 laps around the lake and 1 lap along the Mariah Mesa trail. Then spent the rest of the evening out on the island till after dark and did a short hike along the lakeshore under the full moon before leaving. This park has just exploded with wildlife in the last 2 weeks!!!
