I expect the brood of little owls ringed today will probably be the last pulli of the season. Earlier in the season the pair of little owls in this box failed. Jim checked the box again a month ago and had the female incubating. A few checks later revealed 4 small chicks. John was joined by Jason and Andy to ring the birds. The female was trapped at the box but only two of the four chicks had survived this week. Pics below of the female.
