Owl Watch

Pat and Mel arrived from England yesterday afternoon and so the evening was mainly spent on the terrasse eating and drinking. At about 10pm, the light was just going and so we were all standing out on the lawn in front of the Pigeonier waiting for the first sighting of the owl. We could hear the chicks getting vocifarous. After about 10 minutes or so, we were rewarded by an owl emerging and flying around the house, quite unconcerned by the audience. We all felt sure that there are definitely 2 owls in there as, on occasions, one owl had no sooner flown in than one flew back out.
It was lovely to watch our owl calmly flying around the house and even roosting on the chimney.
