The amazing barn owl

Posted on 11:37 by Unknown
Check out this wonderful video - a tribute to a pair of barn owls that beat the odds, raising 8 young during one of the wettest British summers on record. 

Set to Nella Fantasia, based on Gabriel's Oboe from The Mission soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. Quite lovely.




Consider attracting barn owls to your property by building and installing a barn owl nest box. Purchase our design and instructions HERE, or email us for a quote to build and install.

Our design is one of the finest, with enough room inside for a large family of owls, no perches or shelves to aid predation by great horned owls, and the entrance is high enough to keep juveniles inside until they are well developed.



Want more? 

Consider your own private live-streaming owl channel, like this one HERE. 

Keep an eye on owl activity inside the nest box, day and night, from home or cell phone. Very cool!
