ABOUT THIS FILM
____________________
Gylfie & Dryer
Barn owls Gylfie & Dryer are now in their second season together and have chosen to bring their new family up in my Ash Stump nest box.
Ash Stump
This nest box used to be a favourite of the kestrels, Mr & Mrs Kes, but last year Gylfie and Dryer did attempt a very late brood here. Sadly the eggs didn't hatch, but now they've chosen the box again.
Barn owl behaviour
Barn owls normally lay every other day so keep your eye on my live nest cams for a second egg tomorrow.

[@pixelgoat7317]

I always crack up when I read in my art history classes that owls in medieval times were accused of being messengers of the devil (then again that's not a high bar to meet) and here I am adoring these sweet Night Puffs ❤

[@AlphaDarnia]

I had a real close connection to Finn. He was so attentive and wanted to be close to his mate. Never seen anything like that. My heart ❤️ sank when I heard of his death. He was a very special barn owl. 😢❤

[@aliceklahn]

I miss barn owls. There used to be a nest in just about every tobacco and hay barn around here when I was a kid then something happened and they all just disappeared. I see way more other types of owls and raptors now than back then though which makes the barn owls disappearance confusing to me.

[@corliss825]

So sweet 🥹

[@susanschmid2271]

Wow.

[@marthalikens482]

The animal kingdom is so responsible with their relationships as opposed to the absence of responsibilities in humans!!

[@DefileOdds]

My goose just got up from its nest and stomped on its 1 and only egg.... can't say I'm not thrilled to not have more of them... if you don't know, they scream at literally everything. With geese peace was never an option.

[@kathleendolan8876]

She has not chosen her usual nest site this time,Elm. This nest is in Ash stump.Maybe Bomber the Tawny has chased them a few times too many and she feels safer here.

[@deathstrokeclanrules8562]

1) Isn't this Ghost and Willows usual spot? 2) Gylfie better not abandon her chicks again like that other time.

[@glassowlie]

Ghost and Willow nest in The Barn Owl Tower.

[@Lythiaren]

Oh? Gylfie didn't pick Elm this time around?

[@drowl515]

Hm

[@sarahjeanallison-grap2977]

Yeah, went broody ( I can’t spell)

[@NadoriKaija]

So I know barn owls prefer to nest out in the country more, but what about in residential areas, like around Leeds? We're moving to Leeds on the 8th (little one and I, he's obsessed with these barn owl cams, my husband is already there getting things ready for us) and would love to set up a barn owl box in the back garden, if it could help? If not that then perhaps recommendations for a nesting box of a species in need of the help?? I know we can't choose who ensts in these boxes and such but...would love to try.

[@freespirit6209]

Unless you have a lot of voles running round a (big) garden or very nearby, it won't work with barn owls. And people activity will keep them away anyway in the suburbs. Try something for robins and tits?

[@NadoriKaija]

@@freespirit6209 Considering I've seen successful barn owl nest boxes in the suburbs over in California....a small quiet neighborhood in Leeds should be fine.

[@freespirit6209]

@@NadoriKaija Good luck!
