Moving Out

It is not often that you are able to catch up with young Short Eared Owls after they have fledged. This year they have been so successful that I have been able to obtain film of some young long after they have left the nest. The Owl in this weeks blog is three months old and would perch briefly each evening, just before sunset, then go off to hunt through the night.It is only a matter of weeks now before conditions will change in the hills and most of these juvenile Owls will move to the coast as winter moves in.Click here
