3,862,316 Live Views 1,776 In Crowd Site Disclaimer: This is a live feed of a Wild Barn Owl and family. Owls are carnivores. They hunt, kill and consume small rodents and other small animals. This is nature and contains scenes of the cycle of life which may occur at any time without warning.

Welcome to our G-rated chat!

No arguing, bad words or acronyms of them. English only. No ages, religion, politics or all caps posts, one emoticon per post, no clappyhands. Please, no TV or sports spoilers!

The Owl Channel™ owl box is located in Chula Vista, California. Bonnie and Clyde moved into the owl box, the "Hideout”, in late December 2010. They raised a clutch which fledged in April. Shortly after the fledge, another pair of owls moved in. A young male name Roy courted another young owl named Dale. They raised a clutch that fledged in October, 2011. Roy and Dale are currently raising a second clutch.

The cameras inside the Hideout and in the Lookout are Trendnet TV-IP612WN and broadcast 24/7. The "Lookout" is a camera mounted outside looking at the Hideout. You can view the Lookout camera at http://www.ustream.tv/owlchannel2

Note from Moderators: Owlcamguy has provided his time, resources, money and love of the owls to invite us into his home. The Parlor, annex to the Hideout, is a place where everyone is welcome, everyone is encouraged to chat, smile, joke, give observations, and most importantly, have fun. A moderator's job is not to be an Owl Expert. A moderator is entrusted by the Host to ensure that chatters feel comfortable in his home, and to respect the Moderators and chatroom rules. Please remember this as you make your general observations. Whether you are a veteran owl watcher, or a chatter who has just joined the room, your viewpoint affects the room. The Moderators have full authority to ban chatters as they see fit. Do not appeal to Owlcamguy as he will not respond. Our Hideout Policy here is no intervention, and to allow nature to take its course as Nature sees fit. Owlcamguy provided the Owls with a beautifully constructed box, a Mister for the summer heat, and we are fortunate to have 24/ 7 viewing at his time and expense. With the joy we also at times have our share of sorrow when witnessing Nature.

The Owl Channel™ Policy: There will be no human intervention and I believe in letting Nature take its course. I am not responsible for the actions that occur in and around the box, and will not interfere with the Cycle of Nature. These are wild owls located in my yard. They are not my pets. If you find viewing an act of nature uncomfortable, it may be best not to watch.
