Heard an owl?

08 Oct 2018

Are there Tawny Owls calling in your area? By listening out for them in your garden or nearby green space you could help us to understand their calling behaviour and distribution, and to discover the impact of urbanisation and artificial lighting.

It's easy to take part - just listen for 20 minutes during at least one evening between now and 31 March 2019. You can listen from your garden, local park or woodland. You can even listen whilst lying in bed with the window open! All information is valuable, even zero counts.

Find out how you can take part in the Tawny Owl Calling Survey.
