A pair of Owletts (If that's the correct term!)

My Mum spotted these cute little fellas a few days ago, so I went out there with her this evening to try and grab a shot, the conditions weren't ideal and light wasn't on my side but I came away with this shot, I shall return early one morning when the sun is shining to try and get a better one. I think I should buy a tripod for this kind of work too

Can anyone tell me which variety of Owl they are?

That is a very cool nest cavity. I don't know the birds of the UK as much, but the heart shaped face (forehead) would maybe suggest Barn Owls (which we have in N.A. too).

Get a tall one and a free standing ladder . I can't believe your mom spotted these little ones, great eyes!

Nice pic, they look very cozy in their tree.

Yep, tawny owl.

Nice catch. I love how these baby owls are always so interested in the camera.
