AN UPDATE ON THE BABY OWLS @ CROTON POINT PARK

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton -- our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

As many of you know, three baby Horned Owls were born at Croton Point Park. The willow tree where the nest is located has been cordoned off at a  respectable distance. Please remember your Owl Etiquette. Loud noises, screaming children, and unleashed dogs can be a major disturbance!  Respect their space! Stay on the other side of the barricades! Click on the photo to see two of the babies.

So far--with a little help from the DEC and many others--they've survived major winds, falls out of the nest, etc.  Read and see much more--courtesy of the Croton Point Park FB page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Croton-Point-Park/113811265626666?fref=ts

    1. It's called a telephoto lens. Why aren't YOU happy these beautiful creatures are still alive thanks to good people watching?
