The live feed has been turned off for now. The male of the bonded pair of owls died early April. He was found in the fields near the barn. This means the female now is on her own and is returning to the nest from time. Hopefully, she will find another mate or another pair will find the nest. We here at Topstall Farm were very saddened to them go and feel so fortunate to have had the honor to observe them for the past four mating season.
Please note: The owls seen nesting in this barn attic are wild animals. For generations, the owls have chosen this barn attic as their nesting location. The cameras installed in and above the nesting platform are infrared which emit no sound and no light. The light seen only appears to us watching. For the owls, at night it is completely dark. The cameras are intended to be used for data collection to support the conservation of the species, as well as, education and entertainment for the people who watch.
