Little Owl Nest Cam in Tiszalök

A Little Owl at Home

The camera focuses on a nesting box built into the attic of a house in Tiszalök, where a pair of Little Owls (Athene noctua) have settled. Unlike many nest cams, these owls are present at the nest all year round, making this one of the most reliable owl streams in Europe.

Two Views in One

A clever picture-in-picture layout pairs an exterior shot of the nest entrance with an interior view of the box, so viewers can follow the birds whether they perch on the threshold or tuck inside. Telemetry burned into the frame adds local temperature, humidity and wind readings.

On the Hungarian Great Plain

Tiszalök sits on the Great Hungarian Plain, very close to the wetlands and grasslands of Hortobágy National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape famous for its birdlife. The surrounding farmland is classic Little Owl habitat.

Why Watch

The breeding season brings the most activity, when eggs are laid and chicks hatch in full view of the lens. The rest of the year offers quieter but no less captivating glimpses of one of the continent's most charming and secretive raptors.
