Hatching of the fifth barn owlet

09. May 2026 - Wildlife

female barn owl clears egg fragments away from fifth hatching

The fifth barn owlet has hatched.

We've not been able to see the owlet yet, but the female barn owl has been clearing shell debris from underneath her.

We'll try to add a photo of the fifth owlet tomorrow, once we have had a view of it.
