Before you browse however, the Trustees of the Suffolk Owl Sanctuary have asked me to extend a vote of gratitude to YOU for the valuable support you have shown through your generous donations, owl adoptions and custom you have given to The Owl Barn in the past. Your contributions are fundamental to the work of the Charity and help enable their various activities including the rescue, re-habilitation & education projects concerning the care & conservation of Britain’s wild owl species. This time of year can be quite busy sorting out problems which arise because young Tawny Owlets like this one are found - apparently abandoned - and brought in to S.O.S. when in fact they have often dropped to the base of the tree in which they nest and are often under the watchful eye of a parent roosting in a nearby tree. Thankfully the majority are returned ‘home’ safely! If you’d like to know more about S.O.S. and their popular Adopt An Owl scheme (through which you can lend support and show your affinity with Owls), please visit their website at www.owl-help. org.uk or call their local rate number 08456 807 897 to request FREE copies of their latest newsletter and a useful booklet, “Saving Britain’s Owls”, which is packed full of facts & information about British species & their welfare. For now though, why not take a leaf through the new catalogue to discover some of the new ideas we have discovered for your edification and delight, as Leonard Sachs used to say. We hope you enjoy what you find and the whole Owl Barn team are here ready & waiting to take your order and answer any queries you may have - just call us on our Local Rate Telephone Number 08456 800 199.
