I read somewhere that they'll likely follow their parents around for a bit, learning to hunt. For now, they've been getting room service at the various trees they've perched in, as well as returning to the nest occasionally for snacks and visits.

Thanks for the info. That would be the last parenting step, no? Then it's change the locks, see you at Thanksgiving.

And also something called kleptoparasitism which is just a fancy word for stealing food off each other.

Reading up on the FOBBV website and updates page, they may stick around for 1-3 months, then their grand journey begins, which could be up to 1000 miles away, where they'll establish their own territory.

First mouse of the year got buried in the Potter's Field of our backyard garden. A very small l'ill guy, too.
