about

13.09.2013 at 06.30 Suonenjoki, Lempyy. At the edge of the forest clearing, a Eurasian Pygmy Owl sits atop a young fir tree singing to celebrate the light of the morning. On this September morning, the owls express the extent of their hunting territory with an autumn song. In the gloom of the hours of dusk and dawn, the birds let forth their characteristic call to warn off any other male owls in their vicinity. As winter approaches, the Pygmy Owl starts to horde food for the winter. All around its territory, one can find hollows in trees stuffed full of dead mice and shrews placed there by a Pygmy Owl. When winter is at its harshest and other food sources have disappeared, then the owl can fall back on its natural larder. At the start of this track you can hear a series of shrill cries by a Pygmy Owl and then later there are two owls making passionate calls to mark the bounds of their territories.
