Hmm, you've got a point there, though buzzards aren't just eating the brains, zombie birds perhaps?
This one not a vegan
if you click through to flickr it should work

Off course there were some 'lovely and peaceful' little cute tits around as well

There's some pretty diabolical stuff mixed in there, it's not so easy to get video as I though it might be I'll see if I can sort some of the more acceptable stuff for viewing 
Yup! The box is about 30m into the woods beside our pond and I walk by there every morning with the dogs, my wife thinks I'm mad because I always say good morning to the owl if she's there. She's been absent for 3 months or so, I was wondering if she was coming back, so yay! I think that 2 years ago she lost her mate halfway through breeding. Only 1 of the chicks that year made it out the box, I assume the other starved as it was dead in the box when I checked later in the year. No chicks at all last year after a noticeable absence of male calls in the previous autumn. This autumn she was calling and calling with no reply and then disappeared. A month ago or so and for a week or two there were at least four males about calling and she was nowhere to be heard or seen. Well now she's back, hopefully hooked up and will be a bit more successful this year. These from 2 years ago
