[cobirds] Barn Owls

Just an FYI, For those of you that have been watching the CARRI Barn
Owls nest box activities; well.... don't stop watching yet, it appears
that the adult owls are are going to renest. Their are two adult birds
inside the box that have mated several times. There is also at least two
young that were raised in the box earlier this season.

The young birds are banded, yet the adult birds are not. The adults
seem to stay at the back of the box were the young remain just under the
camera.

Last year we had 1 out of 10 Barn Owl boxes active with Barn Owls and we
banded 6 owlets and 1 adult female. This year we had 6 nest boxes
active and banded 26 nestlings and 1 adult female. If you build it they
will come.
