Fantastic morning out with Andy checking our Tawny Owl Boxes . 8 Tawny Boxes checked with 4 breeding pairs on eggs. Also check two of our Barn Owl boxes and had a nice surprise at both . First one, a pair of Little Owls in. The second one a new female Barn Owl and the male from Pocklington that has now been in 3 different boxes with 3 different females { top man}
Great Morning
All Adults on nests are caught, ringed and placed back in the box with in 5 minutes. The opening to the box is then covered for 2 minutes to settle the Owls back on the nest. We then quietly retreat away and the birds stay on the nest.
