Tu-wit to you all! My name is Tommy, and I am the Tawny Owl at Totnes Rare Breeds Farm. Despite my name, I am a female Tawny, and so I twitter. (If I were a male I would say 'tu-wu'.) From my post at the farm entrance and my aviary at the top, I keep an eye on all that happens at Totnes Rare Breeds, and keep you updated. Since us owls are very efficient, I deliver my news in beak-sized chunks: no more than 140 characters each time. What a very trendy bird I am! Mione the screech owl is quite jealous - but you wouldn't catch her twittering.

If you want an owl's opinion; I think it was good that we never joined the Euro. But monetary matters may not be my speciality.
