This might not be very exciting to a lot of folks however... We've lived here for nearly 20 years & have often heard the Tawnys but have never seen them, even when I'm peering up in the trees in the woods, nothing.
Over the past fortnight two youngsters have been calling, so I had a wander (in the dark I might add) and narrowed it down to which probable trees. Then another wander just at dusk, when I saw the glint of eyes and got Twitted at by Mum or Dad.
After work tonight I checked both trees, one is so twisty & gnarly I couldn't see, however Squeaky #1 was calling last night from there. This tree is more 'open' and Squeaky #2 was dozing quite happily in the early evening sunshine. .
There is a very silly grin at finally meeting this rather secretive but very beautiful Owl!
Our resident Hedgehog has had Gentlemen callers.... Turn the sound up!
