I got a big surprise when I went upstairs in the barn this afternoon:
A beautiful Barn Owl (L'Effraie des clochers, chouette effraie ou dame blanche) had taken up roost in the A frame. He or she had got in through the post holes that are still open on the gable end and was sleeping the day away quietly.
Aren't we lucky to be able to see such a beautiful animal so close .....
This blog is about our experience living in France as we complete the renovation of our property, battle with French bureaucracy and enjoy living in this stunning environment. La Basse Cour is in southern Morbihan in the Brittany area of the west of France and we have a 1960 house, a 1798 stone barn and 6000 m2 of land.
