John, you were probably the most familiar with the Turner Powl. Do you
think it might be the same bird? If I recall correctly it was a male too.

People were being told about it at the Visitor Centre yesterday. If it's
like the one at Turner it will carry-on despite all the attention.

In the same tree but much higher up today, probably double the height from
yesterday, receiving excessive attention from what seemed like every visitor
to the gardens (including all the non-birders). I presume it's presence is
being advertised at the visitor centre. If I was the owl I wouldn't stick
around much longer.
