Episode #9 On Owl Trek the Next Clutch tonight - Terror in Paradise.

Bonnie lets go of the attacking hawk's neck, desperate to break Clyde's fall
somehow. It proves to be a mistake - the hawk flits around in mid air, blocking her descent with talons out, grabbing her chest and trying for her exposed throat. Still, she also has her talons ready and they clash as she sinks her claws into his exposed stomach. They roll through the air, wings flapping ineffectively, plummeting towards the water in the river.

Behind them, Clyde falls into a tree, partially breaking his fall. He lands in the grass finally, stunned. When he comes to his senses, it's quiet. He examines himself while his brains come back online. A deep gash where his shoulder joins his wing alarms him, still bleeding he looks around fearfully. " Where is Bonnie?", he wonders. More soon!

12 barn owl fascinating facts

Discover 12 fascinating facts about the beautiful barn owl.
1 The barn owl was voted Britain’s favourite farmland bird by the public in an RSPB poll in July 2007.
2 Historically, the barn owl was Britain’s most common owl species, but today only one farm in about 75 can boast a barn owl nest.
3 Barn owls screech, not hoot (that’s tawny owls).
4 The barn owl can fly almost silently. This enables it to hear the slightest sounds made by its rodent prey hidden in deep vegetation while it’s flying up to three metres overhead.
5 The barn owl’s heart-shaped face collects sound in the same way as human ears. Its hearing is the most sensitive of any creature tested.
6 Barn owls are non-territorial. Adults live in overlapping home ranges, each one covering approximately 5,000 hectares. That’s a staggering 12,500 acres or 7,100 football pitches!
7 It’s not uncommon for barn owl chicks in the nest to feed each other. This behaviour is incredibly rare in birds.
8 In order to live and breed, a pair of barn owls needs to eat around 5,000 prey items a year. These are mainly field voles, wood mice, and common shrews.
9 Though barn owls are capable of producing three broods of five to seven young each year, most breed only once and produce, on average, only two and a half young. 29 per cent of nests produce no young at all.
10 91 per cent of barn owls post-mortemed were found to contain rat poison. Some owls die as a direct result of consuming rodenticides, but most contain sub-lethal doses. The effects of this remain unknown.
11 In a typical year, around 3,000 juvenile barn owls are killed on Britain’s motorways, dual carriageways and other trunk roads. That’s about a third of all the young that fledge.
12 Everyone can help barn owls. Leave a patch of rough grassland to grow wild thus creating habitat for voles, erect a super-safe deep nest box, volunteer for your local barn owl group, switch to non-toxic rodent control
