Without a doubt, the best Great Gray Owl video I've ever viewed. I am a volunteer feeder/handler/presenter for the Washington State University Raptor Club and have been feeding Gus, our non-releasable male Great Gray Owl for over 10 years. I'm hoping the Covid-19 lockdown on our activities ends soon so I can get back to doing that. Gus is amazing and one of our most stable birds. I've had him on-glove when we do "donation walks" in town and he shows a bond with his handlers, sometimes wrapping his good wing around you for security if it's windy. I miss my weekly interaction with him.
@@mariarohmer2374 Gus is still with us, but due to club restructuring after we came back from the China Virus shutdown, each raptor now has limited handlers and feeders. I have been assigned to Tundra, our male Snowy Owl, and feed and perform his weekly health checks on Fridays.
Bästa filmen jag sett med lappugglor! Följer en familj på WWF Suomi livekamera, bara ett av de fyra äggen har kläckt hittills. Att få se denna lilla film och följa hur de växer och utvecklas var stort. Tack!
Thank you for sharing these remarkable Owls with us! You captured such beautiful shots, many up close that we rarely get to see! I am in love with the Great Grey Owls and can watch this video over many times! Appreciate your outstanding work with these raptors and educating us!
We have many great horned owls where I live, so I guess I like them best. They’re so beautiful and the little fluffy balls of owl are other worldly cuteness !
He is banding them yes. This is a wildlife refuge and they are doing studies on them. Owls are not like most birds and will not abandon their young if humans touch them. They are very strong parents and won't take this as a negative factor in raising their young. Great greys are very tolerant of humans to a point and will let you get pretty close to them. Awesome birds. Of all the raptors in the world OWLS are the best.
@@9798angel maybe they will be scared to approach them immediately afterwards, but Ive never heard of an instance where this was actually happened. Building nests and rearing young is hard, I cant imagine they would just abandon their nest like that
@@9798angel You’re wrong! Birds will abandon nests if there has been a severe disturbance or interference by predators or humans. Short-lived birds are pretty tenacious and will usually move their young rather than desert them. But long-lived birds, such as all raptors, will not come back if there has been interference or disturbance. Naturally, this includes owl species! These adult owls have obviously been highly habituated to humans or these men, and obviously don’t see them as a threat....if they did, they might dive or try other ways to get the men to leave the nest, but it’s highly likely they wouldn’t return. I’ll proved a link where I verified my information (www.scientificamerican.com/article/fact-or-fiction-birds-abandon-young-at-human-touch/), but I’ve also followed a raptor expert of 50 years named Martin Tyler from the *Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Idaho,* who has discussed this time and again in his numerous highly informative TH-cam videos. I’d encourage people to subscribe to that page and watch their videos, which are beautifully videotaped.
@@mrs.stefonmeyers7156 I’m afraid you’re wrong! Raptor species will abandon their young if there has been a significant disruption. I explained more in a reply to the person you responded to, if you’re interested!
I miss my old owl friend who lived in a big old tree right in front of my bedroom window where I'd lived @ in NC for the last 3 teenage years of my life. Unfortunately, his tree house home got uprooted & destroyed by Hurricane Fran in the summer of '96 where NC had been the state it had hit the hardest & caused the most damage to...broke my heart so much bc lil dude had probably lived in that same tree for decades or maybe even his whole life. ❤️🥺
I didnt know great greys nested in open nests like that nest box, I thought all owls nested in hollow trees the way barn owls and tawney owls do. Cool to see!
When they were attaching the metal cuffs to the lil owlets legs it took me a second to realize it wasnt raining, the lil guys were snapping their beaks at them! Such brave little creatures!
*@N VWms* - I hate to burst your bubble, but feel I must! No owl, male or female, teaches their babies to direct poo out of the nest....it’s an instinctual behavior. _This is true for all birds!_
@voracious reader Your comments come across extremely douchey. Maybe try not starting comments with "You're wrong!" or "I'm afraid you’re wrong!" or "I hAtE tO bUrSt YoUr BubBLe BuT i FeEL I mUsT!" Also the person did not seriously think the mom owl taught the babies to poop outside the box. 🙄
Did you see all the green around them? That's their home when you enter on their home they welcome you accepting you on their home as another creature like the others. Awesome birds and thank you for the great video
The great Grey mother seems a lot more doting than other species of owl. I’ve seen great horn and eagle owl mothers rival this level of childcare. Maybe it’s me but Snuwy and Barn owls seem less concerned. And I haven’t seen any other types while nesting. Anyone have any observations on this?

Birds actually will not abandoned the babies it is an old wives tales.

@@voraciousreader3341 cool, thanks for the info! . I didn't know that birds of pray reacted like that because most songbirds don't!
One of the most beautiful videos with birds that I have seen beautiful curujas the nature is majestic

### КАКАЯ КРАСОТА ВОКРУГ... СПАСИБО ВАМ БОЛЬШОЕ ЗА ЧУДЕСНОЕ ВИДЕО....19.7.19 г.
This is just amazing. Great work helping this owls by making them this nesting platform. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I've watched this many times and still find it fascinating with every view.
Спасибо, Gunnar Fernqvist! Прекрасный фильм.
Thank you for 8-min meditation
Say what?
This is a wonderful video. Thanks so much for sharing it!
Thank you Jehovah for these beautiful creatures.
Lisa Sp yes indeed!
They are beautiful!
Thank you! that was such a great video, documenting the stages, feedings and enjoyed it so much!
Just awesome, I loved it!! Wonderful filming.
You're wonderful videographer!
Отличный фильм!!!! Превосходный релакс!!!! Природа просто божественная!!!! Спасибо!!!!!!
They are so beautiful !!!
So relaxing watching nature grow

A little harsh to call them cuffs, it's a bird ring, to identify each one of the bird, because when they're grown they'll look exactly the same
Очень здорово! Пять баллов за аккуратную съёмку!
Beautiful footage of magnificent creatures. Thank you.
OMG this is so beautiful... seeing and meeting my ancestors from a distance 😘
Congrats on a great video free from obnoxious music.
Hear, hear!!! I'm sick of videos with obnoxious, irrelevant music.
Great video thanks for posting
These birds are so beautiful wow😁😁😁
Happy family with the beautiful nest 👍
I want to pet them so bad.
Que bellos!!!! Que video mas lindo!!
Momma Grey is so gentle preening her babies, and she taught them to poop out side the box
Lol!! Agree... good mom!

Thank you for this!! The baby owl looks like a real Dufus!!
Fantastic!!
I like this,love owls.👍👍👍
Their gaze is amazing.
What a magnificent bird. In raptors females are generally larger
Fora da terra nao encontraram nem micróbios, na terra milhares de espécies de vidas, isso e a magnífica obra do Deus todo poderoso.
Did you see all the green around them? That's their home when you enter on their home they welcome you accepting you on their home as another creature like the others.

I think the parents are pampering their children too much...
How big is this platform? Would a great Horned owl use it?
Beautiful footage, I wonder where it was filmed ?
About an hours drive west of Stockholm,Sweden
