Suffolk Bird Group will be at the Framlingham Country Show! 🦉🐦 Pop by for a chat about what we do, from Barn Owls, House Martins and Swifts to our other projects. Come and say hello, find out how you can get involved… and enjoy a brilliant day out while you’re here! 🌿🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

The Owl Crew have been brilliant today, working their socks off to get another 4 boxes up as part of our Sizewell mitigation project! 🦉💪 — another four potential new homes for Suffolk’s barn owls, and another great bit of teamwork! 🌿 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @duncanrford.bsky.social

Happy Owl Awareness Day! 🦉 If you’re lucky enough to spot a Barn Owl, we’d love to hear about it. Every sighting you send in helps us build a clearer picture of how Barn Owls are faring across Suffolk. Please keep those sightings coming! 💚 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @waveneybirdclub.bsky.social

Another two Barn Owl boxes up today as part of our Sizewell mitigation project! 🦉 A huge thank you to our brilliant volunteers for all their hard work. Every box gives the next generation another chance. 🦉💚 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @duncanrford.bsky.social

Come and say hello tomorrow! 🦉 We’ll be at the British Birds themed event talking all things Barn Owls and the work of Suffolk Bird Group. Come and have a chat, ask us your birdy questions, and find out how you can help wildlife in Suffolk. We’d love to see you! 🦉🪶 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

We’ve been kept busy by an incredible baby owlet boom! But we’re also finding time to start installing the first nest boxes for our Sizewell mitigation project, providing new nesting opportunities & habitat to help replace what’s been lost. 🦉🌿 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @duncanrford.bsky.social

It’s been a fantastic barn owl season so far! 🦉 If you have a barn owl nest box and haven’t yet had a visit from one of our volunteer monitors, please get in touch so we can make sure it’s included. Every record counts! @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @waveneybirdclub.bsky.social

It’s that wonderfully busy time of year! 🦉 Between checking boxes, ringing owlets and putting up new nest boxes, we’re certainly being kept busy. Seeing so many owlets this season is a wonderful reminder of just how resilient nature can be 💚 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @dave09.bsky.social

Who said barn owls can’t live in a housing boom? 🦉 Thanks to the amazing Debenham Community Shed, we’ve got a whole new estate of beautifully crafted barn owl boxes ready to head out across the countryside. Fantastic workmanship and support for wildlife conservation! 💚 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Looking forward to day 2 today at the Helmingham Hall Plant Fair 🌿☀️ Yesterday was busy with so many lovely people stopping by to tell us about their barn owl sightings and wanting to help🦉 At this rate we may need to step up box production rather quickly… 😅🔨 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Beautiful day at Helmingham Hall for the Plant & Artisan Fair ☀️🌿 All set up with our barn owl bits and pieces, pellets, boxes and plenty of owl chat! If you’re visiting today, come and say hello 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Barn owl box installation day! 🦉🔨 A lot of hard work, planning, teamwork and head-scratching goes into every box for the @suffolkwildlife.bsky.social project — and today was another busy one in the field. 🌿 Thank you @duncanrford.bsky.social for sterling work @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Barn owls, wildlife chat, and hopefully minimal gazebo disasters… 🦉🌿 We’re all set up at the Bury Wildlife Festival today, so pop over and say hello if you are in the area! 🦉✨ @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Huge thanks to the brilliant team at Debenham Men’s Shed who’ve just finished the first TEN barn owl boxes for our project! 🦉🔨 Absolute stars — craftsmanship, community spirit and plenty of sawdust. Can’t wait to get these installed! 🦉✨ @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Big thanks to @duncanrford.bsky.social for installing this brilliant new barn owl box as part of the @suffolkwildlife.bsky.social 🙌🌳 Perfect spot, perfect work—now we just need some feathered tenants to move in! 🦉✨ @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Earth Day reminder 🌍 Healthy land means healthy wildlife — and that includes our beautiful barn owls. Every hedgerow, meadow and field margin matters. Protect the small things, and we protect them too. 🦉💚 #EarthDay @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

What a lovely evening with SWT Woodbridge talking all things barn owls 🦉✨ Thanks so much for hosting us—great crowd, great questions, and plenty of owl appreciation. Always a joy sharing the magic of these birds! @dave09.bsky.social @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @suffolkwildlife.bsky.social

What a cracking day at Farm & Country Day at Trinity Park with BTO Suffolk! ☀️🦉 Huge thanks to Cheryl, Anne & Wendy for all their help—absolute legends. Brilliant fun with the kids. @learnerbirder.bsky.social @cheryldeeks.bsky.social @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @waveneybirdclub.bsky.social

Swoop by if you’re free—we’d love to see you! 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social @suffolkwildlife.bsky.social

Out scouting new spots for barn owl boxes today—what a cracking day! Met some brilliant, enthusiastic people and found some lovely sites. With luck, a few barn owls will soon be moving into their new homes… prime vole-view properties. 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

A lovely afternoon with the Melton WI talking all things barn owls and the work of BOSS. A brilliant audience, great questions… and of course the all-important WI cake selection! Thanks to @dave09.bsky.social for helping with the talk 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Our beloved Barn Owl are gearing up for spring. Pairs are bonding, and yes… they’re giving our recently installed boxes the once-over (no pressure, lads). Males are out hunting to impress. Romance, owl-style 🦉 We’re keeping everything crossed for a good year ahead. @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

We were at Love Our Planet Discovery Day at Christchurch Mansion today. Tiny bones everywhere, wide-eyed kids, brave parents, and more “ooooh that’s a skull!” than you could shake a femur at. Nothing says family fun like dissecting what a barn owl had for tea 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

New owl flat going up — luxury box edition, tucked inside a barn. Warm, dry, five-star. 🦉✨ @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Putting up owl boxes is brilliant – and we’re doing lots of that – but boxes alone aren’t enough. An owl box without good habitat is a bit like a house without a fridge… there’s nothing to eat! Rough grass, field margins and fewer poisons make all the difference 🦉🌾 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Another nest box made by our wonderful volunteer John and now up in place 🙌 Fingers crossed it’s just in time for owls to approve and move in this year 🦉🤞 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Huge thanks to our volunteer extraordinaire Duncan🦉🔨 A fab new landing shelf and a bit of box TLC means it’s officially back in business for another season. Owls approve. Very much so. 🦉✨ @duncanrford.bsky.social @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Delighted to be out helping Bentley Parish Council’s Barn Owls today! A brand new box up and their existing box repaired and cleared, all ready for the season ahead. Here’s to a great year for their Owls! 🦉 ✨ @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Last barn owl box of the year is officially up 🦉 Time to down tools, warm up, and start plotting next year’s boxes. Thanks for cheering us on all year — we’ll carry on as we mean to go on. Happy New Year! 🎊 🦉 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social

Wishing you an owl-together wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year 🦉✨ Thank you so much to everyone who’s supported BOSS this year — we truly couldn’t do it without you. With heartfelt thanks from the whole team 🦉🎄 @suffolkbirdgroup.bsky.social
