Recommended Posts

yep,,, 5 young rabbits gone, at first i thought it was a cat but i didnt see any blood or owt, then i went to lock the 2 adults up at about 11pm and there she was, a nice big barny sitting on the fence right over the run, i went out 2 nights later and she was there again, and the night after i saw her hunting over the back gardens, going try set a camera up, i was a bit pee'd off at first but being a barn owl that took em it kind of cool.

doesanyone know if there is anywhere that monitor wild barnys cos i live in town (greenbelt kind of) and ive noidea where they could be nesting in this area, or do they have quite big terrortories?????
