The end of the journey for one may be the beginning for the next

            Nature knows how to balance the books - the Great Horned Owls will be nesting this time of the year and for them and for their offspring to survive they must find food sources.  Hope they have a good season this year ahead and we get to see some owlets in a few months.  I have had this photo for a number of years and was hesitant on posting as I know seeing a kill is sometimes difficult for some individuals.  Circle of life and nature can look cruel but has a purpose.
