Tawny Owl Calls, Holbrook, 26th December 2024

This recording features two (or more) Tawny owls calling to each other in the gardens around my house, and was captured just after midnight on Boxing Day 2024. The surrounding area was peacefully quiet with only one solitary car passing. The mist that had covered the country for a few days was dripping from the branches of our garden trees and falling from the guttering, but the evening was dry. The owls couldn't be seen, and seem to be moving around between calls. It was a wonderfully peaceful way to close out Christmas Day.
