Visiting the scops owls. When I took part in the trip for ringing scops owls near Nizhny Novgorod, I was allowed to climb the ladder to get to a birdhouse. It wasn't that scary, as I'm not afraid of heights, but it was uncomfortable and shaky. I don't know how Aleksey manages to do this multiple times a day while carrying birdhouses.
The scops owls are cute. The night before there were three of them, but the oldest chick has left the house during the night, and finding him during daytime is pretty much impossible. The second chick should be leaving the following night.
