Little Owl Saves the Day

Peter and I went out tonight to try and find some glimmer of hope on the Barn Owl front. Sadly all of the box checks revealed nothing more than one fresh pellet.

This female Little Owl was, however, the highlight of a disappointing evening when she was discovered in one of our Little Owl boxes with one tiny chick and two eggs. She is the first breeding Little Owl that we have found this year.
