Barn owls
Site withheld for obvious reasons, but a pair of barn owls are feeding young in a natural nest site near Hebden Bridge. First time I've seen any that weren't nesting in a barn or box.
There were a pair near me but they have not been seen for a few weeks. Could it possibly be the same pair moved after disturbance? I'm not too up on breeding habits etc but 'near Hebden' isn't a great distance from the pair we had locally.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
