The postman said: "The owls are so inconspicuous that they just sit there on the rock faces most of the time totally invisible to 99 per cent of people who pass through.
"I had a strange feeling I was being watched.
"I scanned the rocks with my binoculars and noticed two tiny eyes peering at me from over a boulder.
"I knew instantly what it was and I actually laughed out loud at just how comical it looked and just how bad it was at hiding from me.
