There were at least 8 pairs of Short-eared Owls on Skomer this year, up from 5 last year which was up on the usual 1 or 2 pairs of the last few years.We were a bit worried that there were hardly any voles this year & guessed they wouldn't do very well. Tim Healing is here trapping voles at the moment and there's millions of them so hopefully the owls have done really well, although they've gone very quiet at the moment.
