Twit Twoo storey home seeks a first time flyer.......

The janitors have been very busy building an Owl box for the Wetland area. The box is built to strict specifications for (hopefully) a Barn owl, but Kestrels are also known to take up residence in these boxes (along with naughty squirrels, crows and pigeons).


A hatch has been put on the front so that it can be cleaned easily but also as access for trained Bird Ringers to ring any chicks born in the box. Here's to hoping that a bird of some sort takes up residence in it......both Kestrel and Owls have been spotted in the area it is going.......
