I Miss My Baby Owls


baby owl springhill 2009, originally uploaded by NellyMoser.

For the second year running there has been no long eared owl babies at Springhill. I miss them very much.

We think that buzzards took over their nesting site. Last year there were at least three young buzzards reared on our land. Buzzards are OK but I'd much rather have owls.

The bird population of my garden has also changed, I how seem to have Magpies and wood pigeons instead of wrens and wagtails.

The thugs have taken over.
