Young Great Horned owl peering out from its nest in a dead tree cavity, with blue sky background. The mother's tail feathers are also visible. Taken in Fish Creek Provincial Park, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The nestling was panting as it was a warm day and the sun was shining directly on the nest, plus this owlet and its sibling were mostly completely covered by the mother owl.
