This is a pair of Little owls at the moment it is a work in progress I am pondering an a couple of ideas for the casing
The Little Owl is not a native of Great Britain it was introduced here in 1842, we now have a great love for this owl but it does need old trees like a lot of other birds for nesting. sadly I keep seeing a decline in our older trees as field sizes get bigger.
