Robert Fuller: What I have seen in a year of bird-watching in Yorkshire yorkshirepost.co.uk - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from yorkshirepost.co.uk Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
MY wildlife cameras give me a direct view into the daily lives of the barn owls that occupy Fotherdale, the valley that sweeps away from my art studio in Thixendale. Footage from their nest box, located in a sycamore tree some 200 metres away from my home, is relayed directly onto screens next to my painting easel. It is also live-streamed onto my YouTube channel where 1,000s of owl lovers from around the world also follow the story of these Yorkshire owls. Right now, a very special love story is unfolding on the screens. Two owls are standing close together, the tips of their folded wings gently touching.
