I ran into Tweet and Lv at 3 am my time.. 4 treats were reported in at this point and another Huge Gopher at 12:12... Maybel and Rennie were keeping an eye on things, and Rennie observed that although Roy thinks he has control of the egg situation, Dale took care of business on her end by removing treats two nights in a row. Good wishes go out to Hooteh who was trying to fight off a nasty virus..feel better soon! Extra hugs to Our King, Hummerdad.. he's got his biggest w*rk weekend coming up.. send him extra <3's when you do see him..!

Meanwhile in another Owl Box Far Far Away... guess who is peeking out the door <3

McGee takes shelter in San Marcos from the Chula Vista zombie approach

What a wonderful treat to see Molly and McGee in The Owl Box last night as Carlos tested connections.. No eggs, but lots of chitterchat going on between the two of them..a little bit of loving grooming of Molly by The McGee.. hmm.. if only we had the Decipher Code.. C4?
Btw.. When Carlos is ready, he will let us know if he is broadcasting any part of a possible C4, so no need to constantly ask him please ! (If we are nice and quiet and be really good, we may get a treat.. shhhh):o

TWO WEEKS UNTIL HATCH TIME !! Wooooooo~~

For the Bonnie and Clyde viewers, we enjoyed the antics of one of the cutest and Largest owlets on the stream, Billy The Kid... (Second only to Ashley Royal as indeed, the Queen of Supersize: ) Lonestar noted a differential in our eggs right off the bat.. (as he IS Lonestar..) Could be we have an owlet-to-be that not only meets but exceeds our ExpectOWLtasions...??

Finally... another treat for the day.. Beautiful Dale.. and... guess who is Live at The Owl Box Right Now?!

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
