Didn't expect to find this......

.....when I went into the large greenhouse at work this morning.


We occasionally find smaller birds, such as wrens, blackbirds and so on, they get trapped in the greenhouse when the automatic vents close in the evening.
Never had an owl before though, I wonder why it went in there?

 

A Little Owl! - and you had a camera to record it (I always carry one in my pocket).

Maybe they could be talked into putting up a suitable owl box http://www.bto.org/nnbw/nesting_birds/little_owl.htm (perhaps with a 'bird cam' in it),

 

What a beautiful face. That stare is so penetrating.
Did it manage to get away without stress Trunky?

 

It got away fine Jenny. I opened up the vents and it flew away unharmed.
Completely agree with you about that stare too.

 

Don't think I got too stressed about it Armandii, although come to think of it, I did let out a little 'owl at the end.

 

wow what a surprise to find this little fellow

 

The only thing i found this morning was a small frog, swimming in my nature pond !

 

I haven't seen a Little Owl for over 20 years, lucky find Trunky.

 

A Owl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
