OWLS

Barn owl looking over its shoulder

Tuesday, 3 April 2007

Mike Gates returned to our biggest audience yet with more information about owls. Starting with the fact that there were nearly 150 species of owl he picked out a few for special mention before returning to the five native breeding species (little owl being an honorary in and snowy being a disappointing out).
Of course, the highlight of the evening came when we met his captive, because it was injured, barn owl.
