ABOUT THIS FILM
____________________
Barn owl chick cheer
As 7week old Griffin makes his first leap onto a platform beneath the box, his younger sibling Fern calls out as if in support. And the commotion attracts the eldest of the brood, Freya, to join in too. Watch as she circles Griffin, encouraging him.
Barn owls of Fotherdale
Griffin is one of three chicks raised by long time barn owl residents of Fotherdale Farm, Gylfie & Finn. Sadly these youngsters lost their father and main provider last month and have had to make the final transitions to adulthood alone.
Supplement food
Normally at this stage the adult barn owl would continue to provide food for his youngsters until they are able to hunt for themselves. Since Finn passed, I have been providing to ensure they survive.
Survivors
But all three seem to be strong survivors!
