Amazing wildlife clip of tawny owl chick unmoved by dramatic lightning storm; Thixendale, North Yorkshire.

As thunderstorms ripped across UK skies last night, this tawny owl chick watched the night drama from its perch with barely a ruffled feather.

The owl chick was captured on cameras at midnight in wildlife artist Robert E Fuller’s Yorkshire garden calmly watching as lightning set the sky ablaze and thunder roared all around it.

Wildlife artist Robert E Fuller uses surveillance cameras in his garden to inform his detailed wildlife paintings. He has more than 60 cameras filming the action throughout his garden in Thixendale 24 hours a day.

Sifting through the footage this morning he noticed this owl sitting stock still on its perch during the thunderstorm “This owl is solid as a rock, it wasn’t in the least bit scared,” he said.
