Helping to ring and monitor 4 beautiful Barn Owls in Shropshire today. Last year the brood didn’t survive due to the wet weather, so it was lovely to have a better outcome this year. Ringed and monitored under licence.

I can’t reply directly to you anymore Rhys. Speak to my agent 😂
This is great, and I got quoted!
I know, it’s great isn’t it!
I was really lucky to help ring two Barn Owl chicks today, a male and a female. Shropshire. Ringed under licence.

150 species for a garden in an inland county is a very impressive achievement, no wonder Tom's house is known as the Salop Observatory. Congratulations, Tom!

We’ve been advised by Harper Adams Uni (who set it up for us) to look at the score (circled) and an 8 or 9 value means it probably is correct, anything less needs checking, and may well be a misidentification.
