Excerpt-
When the owlets are about one month old, they are ready to leave the nest.
At first, owlets hop from branch to branch.
They grab onto tree bark.
They wander around on the ground.
They practice flapping their wings.
Look!
They are flying!
The owlets are now called fledglings(say- FLEJ-lings).
Teaches readers about owls, from the smallest, which can be tinier than an avocado, to the largest, which can have a wingspan of five feet.
