I almost didn’t watch this because the title reveals the fact the father of this family died, but I’m glad I did watch it. It is a wonderful documentary. - “The love between barn owls Gyflie & Finn was indisputable. This pair were inseparable, as to devoted to each other as they were to their chicks. And this legacy lived on in their chicks, even after devoted owl dad Finn sadly died.”
Once I started watching this I couldn’t tear myself away. In addition to a wonderful story the photography and scenery are delightful. - “In this video Robert E Fuller looks back at a UK barn owl pair named Willow & Ghost and follow their first breeding season, from the time they first met to the day their three chicks fledge the nest.”

This is a Hallmark movie. I haven’t watched it yet.
I just watched this - she does wonderful work rehabilitating these fascinating tiny birds. This documentary gives you a glimpse of what is involved and her determination.
This is a cute animated short. Select the title to view. It is about 15 minutes long.
I watched this a few years ago. "A Birder's Guide to Everything" combines a teenage coming-of-age story with birdwatching. It follows young birders on a road trip to find a rare bird, symbolizing their personal growth and passion. Although the plot occasionally meanders, the film conveys a heartfelt message about friendship, adventure, and pursuing dreams - birders and non birders may enjoy this film.
This is just adorable! Another Pixar Short Film, it’s only 6 minutes long. I highly recommend it for all.

This is a Pixar Short Film, only a little over 3 minutes long. It is cute, and should put a smile on your face. Select the video to view the full film.
This is a must see for any birder (or non birder for that matter). It is hilarious, and why wouldn’t it be with a cast of Steve Martin, Owen Wilson and Jack Black. "The Big Year" presents a lighthearted yet engaging look into the world of birdwatching through the lives of three birders as they compete for the highest number of bird species seen in a year.
I watched this last night. There is a lot of violence in this movie, not really my “cup of tea”, but I did enjoy the art and playing “name that owl species”. I also liked the scene where the owlet tossed his first pellet.
"Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole" is an animated fantasy of a young barn owl, who is kidnapped by a group of evil owls known as the Pure Ones.
