Has anyone seen an owl lately?

Hi everyone,

Please don't shoot me down or tell me to get off my a*** and look because I have.

I've been actively looking for Barn Owls for some time now, visiting any areas I can that have been mentioned on here or DurhamBC but have had rotten luck on every occasion. I'm very keen to see either a barn owl or SEO in the wild and would be very interested to hear from anyone who has a reliable area I could see one. I understand they don't come out much in the day but I know they do sometimes!

I've seen some great shots on here of barn owls at Greenabella and Long Newton (places I've both visited) but they seem to be some time ago and I'm wondering where they have all gone.

I look forward to your responses.

Jack
