I saw, what looked like a white owl the other morning (it certainly wasn't a dove) at 3am. Around 3 months ago, I spotted a similar bird about 5 miles away, around the same time of night, could it be the same bird as I'm not sure how far they travel from their nest.
I also saw another one early in the morning, but this was way down south, am I just lucky to witness them, or are their numbers increasing?
