Adult Barn Owls will be hunting later in the morning and earlier in the evening as their broods begin to hatch. The BirdTrack reporting rate for Barn Owl reflects this increase in detectability by rising during June, after being at its lowest in April and May.

Two useful features have just been added to BirdTrack: You can now record the visit time for species lists to an accuracy of 5 minutes instead of 10, and a new short cut allows you to select today's date for your list or casual observation by simply typing the letter t in the date box.
