The picture above shows the most recent picture uploaded to this site by the webcam on Monday 06th of September 2010 08:02 (BST); however, if you would like to see 12 pictures of the box taken over the past 2 hours click here. There are some video clips of the little owls on the Picture Gallery page.

LATEST 1: The first owlet fledged on 13/6/10, the second on 16/6/10, and the third and fourth on 17/6/10, leaving 2 in the nest box so 2010 has been a very good year. See the note and photograph under the table below.

LATEST 2: Early in the year, I set up a swallow camera which has been recording images from the site of a swallows nest from before a pair of swallows started to build their nest there. I have arranged a slide show, which starts with the female swallow examining the nest site and ends with the chicks leaving the nest for the final time. Click here to go to the swallow page, which gives more detail, and to see the pictures.

If you see any interesting activity in the picture above (The young owls will start to look out from the end of May to the beginning of June.), please enter your name and location in the boxes below, and click on submit. When sufficient pictures have accumulated, I shall add a page showing the pictures, and the names/locations of those who have been kind enough to submit them.

The first 5 of the 2010 owlets can be seen in the picture below.

The parent owls roost in the nest box throughout the year except when they have young in the box, or to feed. You may often see them (by looking at the Recent picture updates page) on the nest box during the day when the weather is fine.
