"Operation noctua" end of week 15

June 05, 2012  •  Leave a Comment

Not much to add here after a what feels like a week of drizzle and cool temperatures.

Still no fledglings visible in the little owl field, but both parents still around.

I still think we'll see owlets by the middle of June... (I see Dorset Wildlife Trust's little owls have gawn already)

 

The video below shows one of our adults chowing down on a particularly impressive Lumbricus terristris on the barn roof right at the start of week 15 (when the sun shone and the rains stayed away... remember those heady summer days?!).
