Farming with Barn Owls - Tom Kelly in Offaly

BirdWatchIreland

The series 'Farming with Barn Owls' celebrates the efforts of local farmers to conserve the Barn Owl, and the impact that the presence of Barn Owls has had on individual farming practices and has lead to a more engaged interest in the natural world. Tom Kelly, a farmer in County Offaly installed a Barn Owl nest box in the farmyard of his busy farm, and a pair of Barn Owls moved into the nest box in a matter of weeks. This series captures local perceptions towards the Barn Owl and shows why they are such important ambassadors for biodiversity as well as the role that farmers can play in their conservation and in delivering wider benefits for nature. This video was produced by BirdWatch Ireland and Ruth Hanniffy Photography in partnership with the Heritage Office of Offaly County Council, as part of the Barn Owl survey and conservation initiatives in County Offaly which is supported through the National Biodiversity Action Plan Fund of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
