Watch My Little Owls Return After a Year-Long Disappearance!

  • The little owl is in decline in the UK and last year I found my last remaining site that had always been reliable for little owls empty. This year I decided to head back early in the season hoping that the owls where back. I was hoping that this site if active will provide me with a good location to photograph the owls as we move through the spring and early summer. Find out how I got on in this video.

    That was so cool to watch Scott. Awesome that they returned. Shot from the comfort of your car too 👍 You got some beautiful shots in both stills and video mate, well done. Thanks for sharing the journey out 👍🙏

      Thanks Adrian, one of my favourite owls and a shame they seem to be disappearing. It was nice to do a session where I wasn't laying in a ditch for a change! I must be getting old mate!!😂👍

    Great video Scott and so good to see that these amazing birds are doing well at this site. Look forward to hopefully seeing more of them in the spring and summer.

      Cheers Paul, It's worrying how fast they seem to be disappearing in my area and that seems to be the trend from across the UK. Hopefully these will raise a few youngsters this year fingers crossed👍

    Awesome! One of my favourite birds and that call they make is always such a treat to hear ☺

      Thanks Richard, I was so pleased to find them there this year, they do seem to be declining pretty rapidly in my area. Hopefully numbers will pick up. They treated me to a fair amount of calling on this trip, as you say fantastic to hear!👍

      Cheers Keith, looking forward to getting back up there in a few weeks time. Despite always looking grumpy I can't resist a little owl😂👍

    Nice one Scott clad they have not disappeared! I've noticed with the Tawny's also do not get the numbers from the old places I always saw them. So it's a good look around for new ones to video and photograph got two new pairs already just after a 3rd but it would be nice to get them in the woodland less then 5 minutes from home so I can put more hours in.

      Cheers Patrick, I really need to spend more time looking for the tawnys in my area, I'm sure we must have a few, certainly heard them. So many projects but so little time!!👍

    Sadly have found this to be the case in my neck of the woods also Scott, was a regular till a few years ago now I'm lucky to see one a year. Funny really was just editing an image taken a while back to put up on your Facebook group. Look forward to more. 👍

      Thanks Glenn, yep you do tend to notice these things when you stay around one area long enough. They do seem to becoming a rarity these days but always love to see the grumpy little devils!👍

    Scott, great video 👍🏽 I was only yesterday morning thinking about these Owls, a couple I met late last year when I was out with my camera told me of a similar sized old farm building (which I knew the location of) that they usually see them in and around. I will be going to it soon to have a look. Love the video and stills Mate, stunning creatures indeed 📸👍🏽
