Welcome back for 2013
Apologies for not posting anything yet for 2013, but we hope
to provide regular updates from now on.
The story so far for 2013.
Lincolnshire's Barn Owls have been severely affected by a
combination of a very prolonged cold winter and a lack of food due to a crash
in both the short-tailed field voles and wood mice. We are lucky to have any owls in this box
with the webcam. At least they have
survived this period, though have been noted resorting to eating earthworms and
frogs earlier. The female spends much of
her time in the box and is occasionally joined by the male. We are hoping that they will still breed this
year.
