Momma "Bozak" with her babies. (From left to right) "Bruna", "Vanilla", "Luna", and "Ace." You can't tell from the picture, but they are perched on a beam over 6 feet high. The babies are expert flyers

This is mother "Tiger" with her baby "Miracle", who truly was, and is a Miracle. Out of 21 eggs, she was the only one who hatched. Tiger made a nest in the neighbour's dog house where she would not be disturbed (thankfully there is no dog, lol ) To this day, Miracle is all grown up and mother and daughter are best friends, travelling everywhere together
