UK - Farm's delight after six white #owlets found nesting
Shariqua Ahmed, 7/21/2026
"A nest of six barn owlets has brought good news to a farm after a challenging period.
"The fluffy birds - which are estimated to be between 40 to 50 days old - were discovered at Moor Farm, near Peterborough, and were ringed on Thursday as part of ongoing conservation work.
"Judith Jacobs, the farm's owner, said the owlets were thriving and had lifted spirits after the farm was the target of six suspected arson attacks this summer.
"Simon Dudhill, who monitors the birds for Peterborough City Council's barn owl recovery scheme, said finding six owlets sharing a nest was 'exceptionally good' and was the largest brood he had encountered in 2026.
"He added he had ringed more than 260 owlets in #Cambridgeshire this year.
"Each bird from Moor Farm was fitted with a metal ring carrying a unique identification number issued by the British Trust for Ornithology.
"The ring's details allow conservationists to track individual birds and provides information about their movements."

The last 2 evenings I've been out watching and photographing these long-eared #owlets in #ParkSchothorst #Amersfoort They are so fun to watch hopping branches and sometimes cuddling with their branchling siblings but most of all waiting for the parent to bring them dinner!
I'm planning to go see them again during the daytime tomorrow, hopefully some better light conditions!

Post for a late / early #SolarPunkSunday... #OwlCams! Check out the baby #Owlets!
"The #GreatHornedOwlCam just got a whole lot cuter this week thanks to two new arrivals. Athena, the female owl, stood watch over the nest as her first egg hatched a down-covered owlet on April 8 after 34 days of incubation. The second owlet arrived two days later, on April 10. Over the next six weeks, viewers will get an intimate look at the nestling period of one of the sky’s most formidable predators."

It's impossible that a director as HUGE as #ZackSnyder directing a largely forgotten CG #animated #movie about #EdgelordOwls has avoided any and all criticism of his #DickBirb tale: "Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole".
At least 1 person created at least 1 #VideoEssay systematically tearing this movie apart AND this video received lots of positive reactions and social media spread. It's impossible that this didn't happen. AND YET…
…according to #Google's lying results, there is nothing but ebulient praise and fans fawning over Zach Snyder entirely juvenille, locked in teenage boy morality, fascist grooming yarn about #Owls and #Owlets, aka #DickBirds that are dumb as rocks.
My request today is the same as yesterday. Please reply with the URL of ANY video on #YouTube or #Vimeo criticising — ideally lambasting — The Legend of Ga'Hoole's cinematic adaption.

Nothing good it seems:… given the fact that the snakes are still sometimes eaten by the owlets (and don't survive well once the nest is vacated), this might really by a commensal relationship, where one species reaps a benefit and the other does its best to deal with the situation.

Memories: “This year's great horned #owlets and momma (or papa) #owl on the Audubon Trail this afternoon. The original nest was blown down a while back and replaced with a basket. There were originally 3 owlets, at least two have survived.” ~ April 21st, 2012 in #GrandJunction, Colorado. ~ #owls #greathornedowl #bird #birdphotography

The Great Horned Owlets have fledged. This morning, I got to see both parents are one of the owlets.

The largest of the two owlets sat in plain sight for a preening session, showing off its new feathers.

One year ago today I was watching a nesting pair of #GreatHornedOwls tending to their #owlets. They were in an old squirrel nest visible from the top story of my #PDX home. I set up my camera to look through a telescope to take photos.

The #GreatHornedOwls had gotten soaked in a deluge. Unfortunately the new “nest” didn’t have much shelter and by then the parents roosted nearby but not with the #owlets. Didn’t take too long for them to dry off.

I happened to capture the moment one of the #GreatHornedOwls fledged, rather clumsily. Their original nest collapsed, sending the owlets 60’ to the ground. We re-nested them in an old milk crate and the parents kept tending them. This was a big surprise for all of us! I’m afraid I was just as clumsy with my camera…

I had #GreatHornedOwls nest near my house last spring. After their nest collapsed, we re-nested them, using an old milk crate. The parents kept tending them. Here’s one practicing balance and strengthening its wings.

I had Great Horned Owls nesting near the house last spring. The original nest collapsed, sending these two owlets 60’ to the ground. Portland Audubon came out and helped re-nest them in an old milk crate I had, attached to a tree. I was able to photograph them from my bedroom. Here is a clip from shortly after they settled in. Their parents kept taking care of them.
