Bake Off a real hoot for TV-loving barn owls Peek and Boo

Two baby barn owls have become fans of popular TV show The Great British Bake Off after spending time with a keeper at his home.

Peek and Boo will go on show at Blair Drummond Safari Park Bird of Prey Centre, near Stirling, from mid-September.

Keeper Dominic King said: “Peek and Boo have been perfectly named.

“They’re full of character and love hiding from each other and chasing spiders.”
