- Wonderful news today - at least one barn owl has found our local barn owl box (maybe half a mile from "Swift Half") after the box has been empty since we moved here.
- I say at least one, as the owl that I saw (with Mr.T on a drizzly dawn walk) today was calling.
- Trouble at mill though - as the local council have started work on the adjacent flood plain, transforming it into a watery nature reserve - this may well mean diggers coming in over the winter etc...
- More trouble at mill - the spot where the owl box is is alongside an incredibly popular dog walking spot and path. Even at 7am this morning, in the murk, the owl was distrubed by a jogger innocently running past the box.
- Well.... we're crossing our fingers and our toes and we desperately hope the owl(s?) stay in the box over winter - giving us a magnificent winter of owl watching ahead!
