A BARN OWL NAMED ORION
The bird battle takes place between a male barn owl, named Orion by fans of my Ash Wood livestream ( • Video ), and an unknown male after the newcomer ventures into a nest Orion normally uses to roost in.
ASH WOOD
I built Three Trees Nest and placed it in Ash Wood in the hope that owls would nest here. However Orion and his partner, Star, lost their eggs this year and Star has not been seen since June. Orion continues to spend his time here and clearly considers it home because when he returned to find an imposter inside there was a tremendous battle.
OWL FIGHT
Barn owls have very long legs and sharp talons which they use to grabble with and these barn owl battles can be vicious. It's hard to watch these two fighting, but in the end Orion manages to push the intruder out and reclaim the nest.

Love how so many of these bird battles end with a feather in the mouth. It's like they keep it as a trophy of their victory. "And don't come back!"
I saw it live and my heart was pounding in my throat. I was so helpless and afraid for Orion. Luckily nothing happened to him. I also hope that nothing happened to the intruder. Thanks for the exciting video.
Orion had a tough fight to reclaim his bachelor nest, I hope both owls got away without injuries, and that the newcomer has learnt its place in the pecking order.
Indeed.
Maybe a scratch here or there seeing how they were grabbing each other by the face with their beaks. Pulled feathers, grabbed by the legs each. Doesn’t look like it’s anything life threatening.
I'm actually pretty impressed with the variety of wildlife in your region. Never a dull moment!
That’s true never a dull moment here always something to film 😃
@@RobertEFuller I wish I lived over there. NZ doesn’t have much in the way of birds and other things
That was so scary. Luckily, these fights usually look and sound worse than they are. I hope neither Orion nor the intruder was injured
Indeed, that’s like the least damages they got against each other already…
You're spot on. Like many birds, owl fights aren't intended to be to the death or even serious injury. The intruder would have been hoping that with enough surprise and intimidation Orion would flee and he gets the nest. But Orion stood his ground and the intruder realised he wasn't going to win and fled. Other than some scratches and lost feathers I suspect neither was hurt. Have a great day.
Orion was ok thankfully x
Poor Orion, I hope he finds a mate soon, he deserves so much!
Owls. Pretty to look at, but you never want to be at the wrong end of those talons.
Haha, no kidding
This is like one of those “Yo i heard you were talking to my girl” moments
The Fluffy shoulder feathers vs Tidy feather Orion … and Orion won… truly cannot be more “Facts of wildlife’s life” than this.
They're too cute to be fighting so fiercely 😂...Doesn't look right!🤣🤣
@missthang4982
I just thougt the same😅🙈
Scary, the sound frightens me as much as the sight, poor Orion, those talons are unbelievable xx
Well he knows how to keep a nest area safe that’s for sure and another plus more feathers on the bottom for warmth haha
Beautiful and fierce. ❤
Wow that was a heck of a fight!! Two barn owls fighting inside the nest of the other one.
I would have thought this was a bad fight before I saw Orion fighting another intruder continuously for 9 minutes on the live stream last week. I have never witnessed anything as frightening. Fortunately, the unknown owl got away and Orion seemed to be uninjured. Wildlife is just that - wild.
Glad they both survived to live ❤
Thank you 🙏 Robert that was very ferocious!!
I’ve never seen owls fight! Wow 😮
Talons and Beaks! *Emotional*Suspenseful*Ominous* ... Whatever it takes to defend Orion's territory!
Orion got a couple of cuts on his ankles. I thought he had lost feathers on his shoulder but checked again and nothing missing. Physically shaken our poor boy.
Our Orion, not such the goof we think he is ..
Exciting fight! Barn owls are impressive fighters.
Oh man this epic fight music 😀
I was holding my breath! I enjoyed this, read some comments which suggest neither owl was seriously injured. Thanks be to GOD. Nature is beautiful but not always easy to watch. Thank you for posting. 🤔👀☺️🕊️🥰🙏🏾
Good nesting areas are few & far between. My favourite 🦉
I held my breath watching that. I don't think that owl will back anytime soon.🦉
We often forget these birds are birds of prey and they will stand their ground when it comes to defending their territory. What a scary fight it is
**crawls into a random dark hole**
**panic ensues**
And don’t come back! It can be vicious in the bird kingdom. Glad they both made it. Sad to see fights like this.
I hope Orion didn't get injuries and that our unknown challenger found a different, equally comfy place to stay in.
wow those fights look intense, have you ever seen an owl die from these fights they look dangerous.
😱😱😱 hope all is well !
Powerful film👍
The fluff is flying!
So intense I hope Orion is ok and the mystery owl
Did you continue subscription? Because you have an owlet popping out! 🥚
@ yes it is my anniversary
😱
Orion, the legendary Greek hunter, so ... no chance for any intruder
A very impressive video. I hope both Orion and the Intruder are safe and well. Nature may be sometimes cruel yet always wonderful.
Battle for the Great Ga'hoole Tree.
Toilet-bowl owls!!! I love toilet-bowl owls!!!
Hope both got away without getting hurt. Sure a lot of noise..fussing! I dont like it when they get hurt.
Squatter! Get outta here 😂
Some extra padding for the bed
Handbags at ten paces and nothing more. I watched a Kestrel and Hobby hawk do battle on RUclips which lasted almost 20 minutes resulting in the death of the Hobby hawk. The Hobby was trying to steal chicks from the Kestrels nest but mama Kestrel wasn’t having any of it and ended up feeding the hobby to her chicks. Irony has no bounds.
Wowzers
It was tense even without the sound.
It was so dangerous. But interesting.
Wow! That was scary!
Now this Is Nature!
owner is strong
There's no mercy in nature thankfully they both made it .
Barn owls mean business !
Wow
Wow

And stay out!! 🦉
Glad he was not seriously hurt. Was unfortunately a bad experience but will help when he needs to defend his partner and babies to come😢
Star no longer with us , I really hope nothing bad happen to Orion.
Being a Barn Owl is a hard life. Everything is always a fight. I do hope the two are both alright.
And everything is screaming.
Goddamn that was intense!
Looks like it's time for more housing to come into the neighborhood for the owls so they don't have to fight. 🦉
Their mating aggressively
It’s two male barn owls
I hope we get a little owl video soon
Oh how I hate to see animals fighting! How stressful it must be for them!!!
I know it's just natural but it breaks my hear to know that if one gets hurt, they have no one help them.
Nature
@@Borninthe80s. Yes, I know it's natural. It still breaks my heart.
Yes it was ferocious
Lucky enough there wasn't to much damage for both of the barns.
still cute ngl
Sad, i have been so busy the past few months i dont even know who orion is. Maybe gylfie baby. Well soon i work from home and can watch the stream again.
Orion is on the other livestream
Orion is a newcomer BO from early 2022. He had a partner named Star, though she mysteriously disappeared during Summer along with Willow. Finn died as well, but Gylfie's 3 owlets (Freya, Griffin, Fern) were able to grow up and fledge the nest. There have been some rescued BOs that got released in Fotherdale and Gylfie found a new mate (Dryer, who turned out to be Finn's step-brother.)
If only they could make peace...☹️
👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👌
Oh so terrible! I know it’s nature but all fights upset me. Thank you for showing it anyway.
Are dead trees cut down? Does the area have enough nesting sites?
There are always battles no matter how many nest sites feathers fly often
Ohhh no!!!🙈🙈 i just cant. Are they ok??
They appeared to be fine.
Sorry correction. No ring on other Barn Owls leg. Its Orions foot wrapped around intruders leg.
Who is fighting who ?
Damn nature. You scary!
Jeg love your videos , but I think that the music destroys nature's own music, which is more authentic and dramatic in its own way - I'm a musician, maybe that's why ;-)) but your video's is outstanding, thank you (that's why I'm subscribing)
Who won? Usually its a fight to the finish. I hope there were no serious injuries and both owls got off lightly.
Orion succeeded in ousting the intruder from the box, so I think we can call him the winner! Both owls looked fine after the fight, so nothing to worry about there.
If Orion gets another intruder don't nodify me i was to scared.
Tyson V Wilder
rip I hope the babies/chicks are safe
No death happened. No chicks/ babies involved. This was 2 male Barn Owls as far as I can tell. Orion is the resident male Barn Owl in Ashwood. The other Barn Owl was a unwanted visitor to his nest box
@@victoriahouse9969 lol it was 2 male owls, I didn't realize
Why are they fighting? What made those two against each other?
They are fighting over the nest and territory
Good video and adding the music adds hype, but please turn it down one or two.
Why are they fighting it out? Don't they have a method to establish dominance rank before drawing blood?
Is that what you'd do to an intruder? XD
@@Roadent1241 my point is: if the intruder appeard a lot stronger than me, i would flee. If I appeared stronger than the intruder, he would flee. In both cases the matter would be resolved without fighting, just with a display of feathers and shrieking or however it works in a given species.
@@eglantineeule1037 Not to be owlist but they look and sound the exact same to me so I couldn't tell you which was stronger or louder.
Owls just go for the attack.
@@eglantineeule1037 they are fighting over the nest
Hola Robert no puedo entender por qué se agreden no son del mismo nido
They are fighting over the nest
You'd also fight someone who just walked into your house, surely?
Damn, it’s as bad as our puppies play fighting that sometimes turns serious. Thanks
Why did it look like they were holding each other while kissing in a fight. 😂😳 0:44
It's not a Kiss
Having to roll my eyes at a couple of weak folks who can't handle this sort of thing whining about an upload (when they could literally read the title) and how nature works. People need to grow up.
Anyway, great upload. Seems some people who watch nature videos need to actually open their eyes and realize it can be brutal.
Exactly. This would still happen even without cameras. Nature does not need our intervention
Calling someone sensitive to the violence of nature 'weak' --along with a host of other insults--is an ignorant mistake. Human emotions are nothing to be ashamed of. Rather, it's the lack of kindness and generosity of spirit that some feel they must express that should be examined a little closer.
Squawkkkk
Wtf am I watching right now
Why? Why?
Fighting over the nest
??
Not a fan of the music. Seems like entertainment now.
who was the intruder owl, do we know ?..
How sick probably a sweet female being beat up
It’s two males fighting over the nest box
That was terrible I did not like watching that at all. A bad upload.
It's not a bad upload, you just can't handle what happens in nature and should probably stop watching nature channels.
Well tough. Be glad you're a human who doesn't have to fight over territory and food and mates.
You have sentience and technology. Just don't click on this next time XD
This is real life for these owls I feel it’s important to show the reality of there lives, the videos are all titled so people can decide wether to watch or not
Wow
