Barn owls in Hessay: I've had a microphone out for 6 months in one of our ash trees, and the local Barn owls are currently nest prospecting. There is no disturbance as I'm cabled 120m back to my study 2.30am 26th March @yorkbirding.bsky.social @nybirdnews.bsky.social

This beauty has been visiting our garden pond in Hessay for the past 4 days, catching minnows. Filmed through our conservatory window.
