We are delighted to share our Verreaux Eagle Owl Cam! A few years ago, we put a tyre in tree in Mziki Game reserve in the Northwest and filled it with sticks. In June, a friend who lives there sent us a picture of the female Verreaux Eagle Owl (Bubo lacteus) in the nest. Last week we installed an Owl Cam! It was wonderful to watch the owlet hatch on Saturday, 25th July 2020.
No mention of COVID-19 or Lockdown! Our stories: As hungry as a bat ... Winter - baby-making weather for Bubo africanus ... Rats! Don't reach for poison ... Owls breeding in a chimney - no need for ''rescue''! ... SPCA.
On a wonderful afternoon, with another potential thunderstorm fading away, the team from EcoSolutions met with the residents of Kruinkloof Mature Lifestyle Estate for a very special occasion.
The EcoSolutions October 2019 Newsletter is filled with occupied owl boxes and ringing owlets. Have your owl box serviced and ready for the female owls to breed in.
