Wrekin - Tawny Owls

Whilst I'd only heard Tawny Owl so far this year, this is always a good time to find them with chicks and adults always likely to call? It also helps to get some pointers and a couple of birding mates (you know who you are!) helped me locate these two youngsters. We heard them calling long before actually finding them and they were a nightmare to get a clear view through the foliage. The adults were undoubtedly nearby but didn't reveal themselves!

A couple of record shots, they didn't exactly do much!

It's that 'cute' time of year, ahhhh :-)
