I was an avid ”owl watcher”. Until 3 or 4 a.m. Never was able to get to any events (picnics etc.). Absolutely loved watching Maggie and her clutches and how McGee took care of her so she could take of the wee ones. I am 88 now, retired since 1999 and don’t do much anymore, but that’s ok. I had my time!!!

You and Donna as well

Molly lives in many hearts everywhere around the world. Her wing tips touched many.

Forgot to add that almost daily I see an owl in a store on something!
Carlos, China was a bit slow in picking up on Molly, but the year after and on to this day, they are finally putting owls on everything! You have made them richer

Great to hear from you. I now live in the hills of TN after moving from Houston TX 4 years ago. We hear owls around us daily. My Molly and Magee book sits on our bookcase. Please let us hear from you more often.

Carlos & Donna just last evening was sharing with some friends about the Molly & McGee times, and because of it presented myself as an expert on Owls. In Oklahoma during October weather this year we jumped from extreme heat of summer to deep Winter which caught our wildlife off guard. My girlfriend was showing a picture of a stranded bird (which she called an Owl) of course with my experience as a Owl watcher – I corrected her that it was a Hawk. Thanks for the experiences with Molly & McGee, you and Donna are in my thoughts frequently, praying that the California wildfires will be contained soon.

I am an Oklahoma boy! So I know how the weather can change. All the best and thank you for the comments. I think we all became experts watching the owls.

Perfect pic! Good hearing from you pray all is well.

Most fantastic loss of sleep of my life. I miss all of you and especially the Owlets. Thank you Carlos. Not on the blog as much, but my website is posted.

I use to have building plans for a barn owl box and misplaced it. Is it possible to received those plans again?

My computer has been down for several months so I am just now reading this. Always love any time you post on here.

Not sure how many of you are still around!! I wanted to share an owl box in the city of Temecula. Winkler and Hootie. They have 8 eggs. One hatched just yesterday. It’s not mine, just wanting to share.

Thanks, Kim! Good to hear!
And “hello” to everyone; I still have a warm spot in my heart for the good old Molly /McGee days…..the chat, watching and learning….I promoted my Molly-mug to desk pencil holder because the picture was fading. Take care.

I also miss the Molly and McGee days and all their beautiful owlettes !! Hope all is well with you and everyone, Take Care, Colleen Smith (aka @dncrovlife).
