Short-eared Owl
A day out in the Cotswolds at the end of November 2024 on the look out for Short-eared Owls.
Eventually mid afternoon a couple of Shorties came into view. They were quite distant.
Short-eared Owls are medium sized Owls with mottled brown bodies, pale under-wings and yellow eyes. They are often seen hunting during the day. In winter, there's an influx of continental birds from Scandinavia, Russia, Iceland to the UK.
