OBSERVATIONS FROM ISFRYN | THE OWL

A FILM BY BEVIS BOWDEN

There have always been Tawny Owls here. Heard but rarely seen, it nonetheless has been a reassuring presence. I have counted up to six individual owls on a single night calling during the winter months.

Two years ago I bought an owl box and hung it in the large tree in the corner of the field.

This summer a single owl has spent the days high up in the canopy of the large tree.

Little appears to go unnoticed.

Filmed in mid Wales, July to October 2019.

Music by Slow Meadow.

ISFRYN which translates from the Welsh as 'under the bank' refers to an area of ancient common land and neighbouring fields in mid Wales.

This is an ongoing project that offers an opportunity to capture extended moments - observations - of both wildlife and farming within the landscape they both inhabit.

You can visit ISFRYN here.
