Waddesdon Owl Cam YouTube video by Stuart Jeffery

We've got a livestreaming barn owl box on YouTube. Watch it here. www.youtube.com/live/_znDocQ...

We've ringed the Aylesbury peregrines from the @buckscouncil.bsky.social building.
We think they're 3 males weighing in at 695, 677 and 628g.

Nice photos Will.

Welcome back!

Working in the early spring sunshine, catching up with our box making.

Meeting new friends yesterday in Hedgerley. Putting up new tawny and barn owl stokbord boxes.
Hopefully they'll be providing nesting opportunities for years to come. 🦉

A few photos from today's box clearance at Waddesdon in preparation for the coming breeding season.

A new Barn owl box at Rose Dale's organic farm in Chearsley, and Tawny at the Church in Shabbington. We will return to install another Barn owl, having found some pellets in a tumbledown barn.
