      I really loved how gently Gylfie used her foot to touch on her first baby owlet that hatched, which I’m sure takes _A LOT_ of special care and focus with how sharp those death talons are! Gently, gently.
      She just wanted to love on her new precious baby. 😊

    I just looked up and barn owls often mate for life and it said this " They regularly use the same nest site every year and have elaborate courtship rituals-such as courtship flights, calls, and offerings of food-to reestablish their pair bond every spring" like this is very cute and wholesome

      @@robzworkz3358 Well it isn’t uncommon for birds to mate with individuals outside their pair to increase chances of passing on genes, though not sure about owls, and they aren’t together all year, so they probably see romance a bit differently than we do.
      But yeah, you’ve got to admire the simplicity of animals sometimes, and how they can occasionally show more humanity than humans themselves.

      That's because their goals as a couple are focused on the well being of their offspring, not self centered individual goals at the expense of those they love. Call me old fashioned but a couple should focus on the family. There is a time and place for being yourself, even within the family, but too many of us humans decide not to support our offspring or the partners that helped create and support them. We'd rather chase our career or play that new video game instead of spend time with those we love... which is all the owls are doing. They fight to protect each other, they preen and feed and nest together. If we change our primary focus from ourselves to those we love? Spending time together and focusing on growing strong together? Instant benefits, though it takes a group effort and not just one selfless parent while the entitled one gets away with everything else.

    In a world gone mad, these clips as well as the live stream is proof that beauty and compassion exist in the most obscure places. I have personally found so much peace and enjoyment following the adventures of these magnificent creatures since I first came upon Barney & Gylfie in November of last year. They are a marvel to watch as they move through life and I can't thank REF enough for bringing these beautiful images to the world.

    It is enlightening to see how devoted Finn is to Gylfie, I understood that barn owls had a good pair bond, but this film magnificently illustrates it. My dear Dad would’ve loved this insight, he and his friends formed an aero modelling club with a barn owl as their emblem. you so much Mr Fuller for all of your great videos. Be well 🌹

      Amazingly, I still hear owls in my suburb once in a while… There’s also another kind of bird that can be extremely vocal at night that I have never heard before in my 46 years of life. It is the most peculiar call, and I am just so curious to know what is making the noise! It actually borders on a terrifying/spooky kind of sound - it’s no little song bird lol.
      I have asked one person on a walk one time when they heard it if they knew, but they had no clue either. I hope one day there will be an app developed where we can record the sounds of wildlife and find out what species is making that sound. It would be really cool to learn about all the kinds of wildlife that live around us, hidden from view. :)
