Have also seen little owls in Lee Quarry. As well as the Raven and Peregrine.
Where did you see the little owls?
Was trying to fix my bike just before dark and I kept hearing this noise. I could just about see a small grey shape on one of the rock faces. A little owl.
It was to the right, just after one of the sculptors.
