Yesterday I was ringing barn owls, today I was picking them up dead offuv the A1. There were two road casualties tonight within two miles of each other south of Alnwick. That makes six since August last year between Felton and Alnwick, quite a high rate methinks!
The second bird, near Deanmoor, was ringed, the only ringed bird I've picked up, it'll be interesting to see where it came from.
....and they probably had young to feed :-(. very sad state of affairs.
