Say hello to our Barn Owl chicks that have been nesting out on our nature reserve at . 🦉

We have 6 healthy chicks, which is the most we've had born at Lower Mill Estate for a number of years.

This year has been a great year for Barn Owl chicks across the country, so we are thrilled to see that ours are doing well too!

Each chick is given a full health check and is fitted with a unique ID ring around its leg, which is important for the conservation of the species, helping us track the long-term survival of Barn Owls.
