Owl vs Pigeon fight: Barn Owl also wants to breed inside, but the female pigeon has other plans.

Описание: The male barn owl wants also to use the nest box but the pigeon was inside with her one egg. These fights are common in wild birds that breed in cavities. A lot of the time more than one bird wants to breed inside the same please. Typically the strongest win. The barn owls may return again.

All the birds in our streams/videos are WILD and can enter and leave as they please.

These videos are meant to document the lives of wild barn owls, pigeons and other birds in order that we can learn more for both educational & research purposes and serve as an aid for the species conservation effort. We do not set up/ stage or intervene. All the videos are documenting wild barn owls.

Important notes about barn owls and these cams: All these nest boxes have been monitored as part of our research group’s scientific activities from the Shamir Research Institue and University of Haifa in Israel. All the owls/birds are wild and are free to come and go. We monitor around 200 nest boxes/ 30-60 pairs a year but do not interfere in the owls breeding. In general barn owl pair fledged on average 5 fledglings per pair (range 1- 11 fledglings) but their breeding success decrease in the breeding season with earlier pairs more successful than later pairs. We add cameras either before the pair lay eggs or only have all the nestlings hatched in order to not disturb the owls. So these CAMs are in fact a very small percentage of the overall pairs we monitor. We added the cams as part of own research to learn more about them but also in order that people could observe owls lives without disturbing them. Some later pairs sometimes fail do to a lack of food. This may be hard to observe but this is nature and this is how the barn owls have evolved. You can watch a lecture to given by Dr. Motti Charter to learn more:    • Everything you ever wanted to know about  ...  .
Some people comment about cleanliness of barn owls nest due to YouTube cleaning nests out a lot. Barn Owls do not have any sense of smell and brings dead animals, some of them later rot and also regurgitates owl pellets inside the nests. Owls do not clean their nests and natural nest sites stay like this until they either fall a part or fill up. We do clean our nest once a year, so in fact our nest boxes are cleaner than natural ones. Cleaning boxes too much can cause pairs to abandon and also takes aware beneficial insects that help keep the boxes clean.

The barn owl cam is part of a citizen science study led by the GAIA Project, WBAIS and the Charter Group of Wildlife Ecology (The Shamir Research Institute and the Department of Geography and Environmental Science of the University of Haifa) and funded by the USA Embassy in Israel, a private donor and the GAIA Project. The wild barn owl pair breeds in a nest box we built and added on the middle school. This is the second year in a row the owl pair has bred at the school. The wild barn owls breed in a nest box that we added as past of our biological pest control of of rodents in agriculture where they hunt rodent pests in the agricultural field next to the school. The male is lighter/whiter owl and the female is browner/darker one. For more information please see: https://www.birdboxisrael.org/
