I was looking for something, actually I was looking for an email today when I stumbled upon this image by accident, it was attached to an email from May 2010. I'd sent it from Inverness in Scotland to Paul the son of dad's longest friend. I'm holding three barn owl chicks I'd just help ring. The bird ringer was Bob Swan, an excellent BTO ornithologist. At the time this image was taken at train, this nest site in an old barn was believed to be the most northerly barn owl nest in the British Isles. I wonder if that's still the case? What a wonderful experience, and I was being paid to be there.
