General (County) update - 23rd November 2010

  • Our wintering barn owl seems set on claiming the local box for himself. I say himself because at 06:30am this morning, I watched a male tawny owl and our barn owl have a little fisticuffs over the box. Of course the male tawny owl might be in dispute with a femal barn owl. Twit tw-who's to say?
  • On my ramble this morning I also happened across a water rail (in the river under the box) - a bird people rarely see (me included) unless it gets so cold, lake and river margins freeze.
