The Richland Rod and Gun Club has a webcam live streaming a screech owl and three owlets near West Richland.

Infrared lighting allows a look at activity in the nest day and night. The babies are expected to need to grow for several weeks before they leave the nest.

The male owl had been busy gathering food for the family and the nest recently was stocked with five mice, a headless sparrow and a headless fish.

To watch the owls, go to www.ustream.tv/channel/rrgc-nestcam.
