Tawny Owls at Castle Woods
A true woodland species, tawny owls have adapted to live wherever there are trees. They prefer to nest in tree cavities, and here at Castle Woods, our ancient veteran trees provide ideal nesting spots. The woods are managed for tawny owls benefit by preserving tree age and species diversity. Mature trees are nurtured and maintained, with standing dead wood left wherever it is safe to do so.
