“Beck” walking trail

“Owl” walking trail
This footpath is named after the owls – little owls to be precise – that live in and around Comines. Also known as the owl of Athena, it is a small and squat bird. It is the most diurnal of all the owls. They can commonly be seen perched on fence posts or on roofs. These feathered friends can be found in open and farmed environments, cavities in old trees and unoccupied buildings.
