Birds of prey: Watch as this barn owl and kestrel clash talons in an epic UK tree battle - TomoNews

Two birds of prey have been caught on camera battling for territory in the UK.

Yorkshire birdwatcher Robert Fuller captured the footage with a night vision camera that was placed inside a nest.

The video shows a barn owl and a kestrel in a vicious fight for control of the nest. The two are reported to have fought it out for over an hour with the kestrel eventually fleeing.

“It was very exciting when I walked into the room and saw the barn owl in the kestrel box on the CCTV camera,” Fuller told the Yorkshire Post.

“I’ve been watching this barn owl for weeks. It had chosen a box in the back garden and had been trying to attract a mate to it.”
