The old nest lasted until after they fledged, but barely. It was falling apart daily until it was basically gone. Jim and buddy built a platform to use as a nest and mounted it up on the framework the cam is on. The tree the nest was in is totally rotten and very bad. We were all holding our breath every time a storm came through this year. If you go back to the middle of August and before on their FaceBook page you'll see all I'm talking about....
The "owlets" were starving since the owner installed a cap on the fireplace trapping the family inside it. The owners left on a vacation and came home to find that the interior of their house had some tenants!I guess it was quite a mess!! Luckily all survived but a couple are very weak and will need some care. and
While at a meeting at The Living Desert a gentleman brough in a family of barn owls rescued out of a chimney they were nesting in. I guess this is common and many owlets are lost when the unknowing homeown lights a fire. This is why supplying nesting boxes is so essential!!!
Amazing from how she was to how she is now! Great video and translation Alison, thanks so much. I wish S2 the best and hope she reclaims her nest, (with no incidents)!
