Barn owl egg number three was laid this afternoon
17. April 2025 - Wildlife
We now have three eggs in the barn owl nest box.
There may yet be more to come, though the male owl is not doing a good job of bringing food to the female and that may inhibit further egg production.
In 2023 there were four eggs, and in 2020 there were six.
