  • We could hardly believe it when we got a message from Jos Baart telling us that Europe's biggest owl, the Eurasian eagle-owl, had made a nest in a planter in front of his window. Not only that, she had also hatched three giant chicks! Now, when he watches television, three huge chicks watch television with him.
    Update: Our video reached millions of people, all over the world. We received comments from Japan to the United States. As the city is not the right environment for these young owls the chicks were relocated to a nearby shelter. Now, it is time to release them into the wild. Six months worth of work by @NHCopglabbeek just flies off. That's enormously satisfying! • Famous eagle owls rele...

      yeah, Eagle Owls are some of the more menacing species. Don't mess with me, is what their motto is. That's why I prefer the "nicer" or rather more docile ones, like Northern Spotted Owl, Tawny Owl, Barn Owl, and the Barred Owl. They tend to groom their children more and show more affection to them, but not so much Great Horned Owls or Eagle Owls. They are a bit colder towards their offspring and want them them to be more independent at an earlier age. They are still majestic birds in their own right.
      Screech Owls are like miniature versions of the Great Horned Owl, but they too can be handled more easily.

    Is no one seriously going to mention....How incredibly lucky these owls are to have found such a nice garden/home to nest in.... the outcome could have surely been catastrophic if they had been in a different nesting spot in another person's garden. Thank you Mr Baart for being such a gentleman about it all and letting the owls do their things in your backyard. Then there is always the chance one of the chicks will come back itself one of the next years to nest for herself. :-)))

They usually live like this, in locked places, and when they go out, they do things they don’t like, or overdo them, or both, which causes stress and illness, just like the half of the trash they eat - the other half they dispose of, even though they call it wasting food.
      They also feed on those little screens they carry, it’s like a drug, they even use them when they are taking a shit. Most males also use them to watch simulated reproduction in the absence of a mate.
      Humans need to be constantly buying things unnecessarily, otherwise their social economy would collapse. They also feel good about making and spending their currency. And they also kill each other to establish hierarchic attempts.

    He's right, this is very cool!! Can you imagine having this right outside your window all the time, watching them hatch and grow! If I were him, after they all left, I'd be making a couple of different really nice nest areas for the mom to come back to!! Owls are very cool!!

    Greetings from the USA. Great video. I admire this chap's gentle soulfulness. Nice owl coop. Always good to keep some owls. So many fond memories of owls. Don't know where to begin. Growing up in an Appalachian hillbilly family, it was only natural for us to eat an owl for Thanksgiving and sometimes Christmas. Out back, just beside the panda paddock, we had one of the largest owl coops in the entire county. Usually we raised the owls just for their delicious speckled eggs. But when the holidays rolled around my grandmother would select the chubbiest owl, humanely anesthetize it, and lovingly transform it into the most mouth-watering savory treat this side of Mt. Mitchell. Leaving the head on because "that's the best part," she would prepare the owl by plucking only every other feather "for added chewiness." Then, after removing the gizzards for pâté, she'd stuff the owl with a mixture of buttery cornbread crumbs, spiced unicorn wax and acorns. Slow roasted in its own juices all day long, by supper it would be as tender and fragrant as a daisy. Well thanks for listening to this old badger take a stroll down Memory Lane. If your buggy ever breaks down near Rhubarb Hollow, NC, y'all be sure to give us a howdy.

      ​@Harold, The Talking Tree What has that to do with the video? So would worms and any other carnivore going for corpses. Just because the raven in my garden would eat my corpse doesn´t mean I harbor any resentment towards it. That´s just nature. Just as much as a pet dog is going to eat his or her owner in case of death. You don´t have to expect anything back to show empathy. Whatever you are taking, take a break

      Inquisitor Mhathue, I noticed it too. He does have a nice clean, organized studio area. Looks like most of his paintings are large floral abstracts, just my interpretation. (He definitely has some artistic skills). But why not try to paint the baby owls & mom during the few months they are living next to you. Soon they'll be gone, but you will always have your paintings. As a bonus, if the paintings are good, he could find some new customers among the bird lovers who watch this channel.
