7. They sleep during the day. In Central Park, they usually find some kind of Pine Tree to perch during the day.

There they are almost impossible to spot.

About 15 minutes before sunset, there will be 15 or so people around that tree, waiting for the evening "fly out."

It will stay in C.P., probably for just a few days.

If she is pooped, it's probably from keeping her little owlet warm in below freezing temps in NYC. Fla Dem Dec 6 #3

Too early for an owlet. Also, I doubt it would be hatched in Central Park. 3Hotdogs Dec 6 #6
