Barn Owls have excellent adaptations for successful hunting and are generally most active at dusk and dawn, typically leaving their roost site and ‘commuting’ across unsuitable habitat to reach a favoured hunting area, such as a patch of rough grassland.

Baby barn owl alert! 😍🦉

Early this morning, we heard those faint, telltale squeaks coming from our barn owl nesting box! Sure enough, when Trude took a very quick stretch outside, we could clearly see her first egg had hatched.

Watch the moment in the clip below! 👇

Check out this barn owl box that Trust member Colin and his friends Carl and Andy erected near Eckington! It was built with reused timber to a plan from the Barn Owl Trust - it has a landing platform, climbing grips for the youngsters and a big opening to attract the birds 🦉

Our updated website has gone live!

Thank you so much to all the generous and talented wildlife photographers who have allowed us to use their beautiful Barn Owl (and other) photos.
