:Protecting Britain’s Owls

Learn about our owls, and the latest study of these amazing birds,, plus the help they are being given with  conservation.

Their talks cover amazing British Owls – their history, toxonomy, habitats, population status, behaviour, their future and the Conservation projects work..

They bring along displays and their wonderful team of captive bred Owls for the audience to meet.

They also offer pellet workshops where the participants are able to dissect wild Barn Owl pellets and discover what are forming these owls’ diets.

Pellet dissection is a helpful conservation tool and we note what has been found during these dissections.

TRAINING AND COURSES are currently offered to their volunteers and other groups they are working with.

They can offer tailored sessions for groups.

The British Owl Project was set up to work with environmental groups, landowners, tenants and educational groups etc. to enhance and increase existing habitats for our British Owls and create new habitats for them, linking them as networks or habitat highways. 

Added to these areas and networks of habitat were nest boxes for the different breeds of owls and their monitoring.

They are involved in the educational aspect of conservation undertaking various events, talks and workshops, together with the training and helping individuals and groups who wish to get more involved in this work.

” There is nothing more beautiful than watching a Barn Owl floating silently across a meadow hunting, hear the haunting call of Tawny Owls, look into the determined glare of a Little Owl, to witness the amazing sight of a Short Eared Owl’s courtship flight or look into the dynamic orange stare of a Long Eared Owl”
