Happy New Year everyone!
Great start with lovely captures of our pair ... but mighty strange about that 'third' one ... maybe a late 'first footer' Lol!
Good to have some colour Scylla, hope you are continuing to improve!
Gales seem to be a bit of a fixture just lately, another blow overnight promised here, stay safe all!

They're both eating well :) It doesn't look as if the box has been cleaned out from last season? (right hand side)

Unsuccessful brood?
Hi, the South Downs owls (if it is the same pair) had three chicks in 2017, but all sadly died in June. At that time the parents had disappeared for a number of days. The camera was switched off in June 2017 as the sight of the dead chicks was distressing. I am not sure when it was switched back on but I spotted it being live again in November/December. Ian
Hi Ian, Many thanks for the information, let's hope this season will have a much better outcome.
