The Ijams owls are easier to find before the leaves unfurl


Aaah! The warmth of a sunny spring day. After several weeks of snow, ice, rain and overcast days, it feels good to just sit in the sun and soak up the rays.

Just ask the barred owls that live in the woods behind the Visitor Center.

Photographer Chuck Cooper had a couple of recent encounters. Although the great blue heron is on our logo, the Ijams barred owls have become more of our signature species. We've had people drive all the way from Kentucky just to photograph them. Here is some of what Chuck saw.
