A small group of us joined Andy today checking Barn Owl boxes in countryside to the north and west of Leeds - 6 Barn Owls in total with 3 being ringed for the first time. There were also 3 clutches of eggs so fingers crossed there will be plenty of chicks to ring in just over a months time.
We also ringed 2 Stock Dove chicks and re-caught a Kestrel ringed by Andy in a previous year.
So far it’s looking like it could be a good year for Barn and Tawny Owls.
