TWO owls! screech owls, they thankfully do NOT screech and make a sweet humming coo
the grey one in the hollow log stump (i believe) is the male and the redhead in the house is the momma, hopefully making little owlets!!!!

I was telling a dear friend that i would miss my whole life if i tried to actually count my blessings and he said "you enjoy the moment and I will remind you how lucky you are later!"

What is the big plant at the beginning? I got a piece of something similar from a greenhouse that had one that wasn't in bloom. When I asked if they had any for sale the owner just broke me off a piece and told me it should root just fine. Mine has rooted but after a bit of initial growth has just stayed the same for more than a year now.
