A reminder of what I hope is to come tomorrow, wish me luck. Short-eared owl hunting.

Close encounters

First of the year in late evening sun.

Poor lighting in a cold -14C cloudy evening.

I worked hard to get this photo because of low light and telephoto not focusing properly. It's going back to the company today for repair. Oh no....out of commission for 2 weeks!!!

Always a thrill to watch Short-eared Owls and I was privileged to watch this individual hunting over some local moorland yesterday evening and catching a number of large-looking voles.

Thank you for viewing

Sun finally came out so off to visit the owls for a couple of hours this afternoon

Back this afternoon to enjoy a few moments with the shorty's

Wonderful memories for me to hold onto after spending time with the beautiful short eared owls today

Thanks to all who have visited, commented or faved my photos. It is very much appreciated. Constructive criticism welcomed.

Thank you for viewing

I didn’t make the most of the opportunity to photograph this owl in flight. I was so intent on getting the perched shots I picked a poor position for when it took to the air. Still managed a few shots and this was probably the best of them.

Wonderful feeling as this owl passed right above me on the day.

I have been spotted but this little beauty was not bothered at all and just got on with hunting for food

Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.And thank you all for looking.

Made the most of the sun today... The shortie spent most of the afternoon in the distant tree, only making a few flights and none close enough for a 'good' shot... But always a joy to watch. :@)

Shor-eared Owl

Short-eared Owl (Asio flammeus). This photo illustrates a particular feature of the eyes of owls - differential dilation. When zooming into this image the pupil of the right eye (in sunlight) can be seen to be noticeably smaller than that of the left eye (in shadow).
