> I observed 4 juvenille Bobook Owls last night
(5/1/06) about 8pm in the
> reserve at the back of my garden at Gellibrand St
Campbell (area used to
> be called Monash Drive). I was alerted to their
opresence by a strange
> 'trilling' type calls that I have never heard
before. I observed them for
> about half an hour silently catching what appeared
to be moths, at one
> stage the 4 owls were all together on one branch
about 5 m from the
> ground. They all appeared to be young birds and
communicated with each
> other by a trilling call. I am surprised that 4
young birds would be
> together in the same place.
