Hi Tony, sorry to bother you, are the Tawny Owls still showing in Regents Park? A non birding friend of mine really wants to see Tawny Owl anf Regents is a short distance for work. If so, what's the best time to go see them, I'm assuming early before the park gets busy. My email is rolyatl@gmail.com - Thanks in advance. Lee
Hi Lee.

According to my old work colleague the owl hasn't been showing that often. Mind you we have had a steady strim of westerlies that would make his roost site fairly uncomfortable.

It is also possible that the female is on eggs by now.

If it is still showing it will be on my blog.

No sign of the LSW in Bushy yet then, Tony?
Not a single drum. Mind you I haven't looked very often.
