Great Horned Owl Nest

Owl Watching – You’re peeking into the life of two wild Great Horned Owls, Ellie and Albert, via a live cam. They’ve chosen to nest at the Ellis Bird Farm, a non-profit organization nestled within a working farm in Lacombe, Alberta. 

๐Ÿ“… Nesting Season:

Remember, February is the start of their nesting season! It’s a unique opportunity to observe these majestic creatures in their natural habitat.

Reaching out to the Ellis Nature Center, they confirmed they have turned the cam here off for the season. This was based on Ellie and Albert’s decreasing visits to the nest and that the window for any possible eggs this season had passed. Bye Ellie and Albert, Hope to see you next year!

I last saw Ellie on nest 3/24/25. Wonder if the cam Host shut off cam because the window for any eggs was gone?? I hope so and not because something is wrong with Ellie. I do worry about that piece of metal wire panel brought to nest.

Ellie or Albert added a section of what looks like metal panel to the upper nest rim. Hope a squirrel or other critter doesn’t get its head stuck in it.
