A family of Great Horned Owls made a nest site in a old brick building, That brick building was the old Lithia Brewing Company in downtown West Bend, WI.

The birds made home to a old air vent and had 3 owlets that year. The building is now tore down, The birds have moved on. I was lucky enough to watch them grow up from small white fuzz balls to flying out into the new world.

      Good one!

      Anyone looking to meet some raptors in person should check their local brewery’s whoery’s events page. Once it gets to spring/summer, so many rescues will have Hoo 'n Brew raptor events at them where you can see some neat birds of prey up close.
