A coworker of mine has three owlets in a nest in a tree near her house and now the entire company is obsessed with them!

We now have a Slack channel dedicated to them and get updates every morning 😂

UPDATE: I’ll be posting the daily owl update from our company Slack channel on here with #DailyOwlUpdate.

Does everyone want me to just post the daily owl updates here?

We can all cheer on these little guys as they grow! 😄

Got some exciting news!

I talked with the coworker and wanted to make sure she’s ok with me sharing the daily updates.

She said she’s so happy everyone is as interested in them as she is and is fine with me sharing them here.

So I’ll be copying what she posts in our Slack channel over to here. Expect to see more #DailyOwlUpdates! 😄

..that tree looks like it has a nose above the opening where the owls are, making it look like a mouth

Its adorable! But also in my twisted mind I visualized the tree with googly eyes above the "nose" and now it's also wildly funny and a tad bit scary in my head as well... 😆

I can't unsee the nose, mouth, and owl-teeth. I'm hooked by a simple image!

I don't care if there's two knots cropped out of the picture or not; they exist in my head.

@ty_406 My company in Alameda is likewise obsessed with a mating pair of bald eagles that appeared here for the first time in over 50+ years, and while they don't have a Slack channel (yet) we've been tracking them both directly and not now for 4 months. I take it as a sign I work for the right people.

(Recent storms in N. CA wrecked their first nest & eggs, but they've already re-built and are trying again 🦅 )

@ty_406 They’re sooo cute when they’re babies. When we were kids, Pop came across a nest where the mother had been killed. He brought the babies home, made a ground nest for them under a sage bush & surrounded it with a large metal netted enclosure so we could walk in and feed them, but they could still interacted with nature & be safe from predators. It was so fun to watch them grow. #Nature #Owl
