šŸŽ„The Nature of Mull - Advent Calendar Day 0ļøāƒ£1ļøāƒ£Ā 


A Long-eared Owl that had recently dispersed from its nest onĀ Mull. This was one of three owlets to fledge from an old Hooded Crow's nest in a stand of larch. This secretive and under recorded owl species doesn't build its own nest and instead has a huge preference for using old corvids nest for their own breeding attempts so next time you see a Hooded Crow or a Raven on Mull, give these clever corvids a nod of approval for being such skilled nest builders and helping scarcer species like these majestic LE Owls!Ā
