This is a previously unposted picture taken in the year that Shorties were prevalent at a Manitoba location in late December.

Short-eared Owl, Somerset UK

The name of this species could be misleading: it is 'short-billed' only by comparison to the Long-billed Dowitcher, and longer-billed than the average shorebird. Flocks of Short-billed Dowitchers wade in shallow water over coastal mudflats. They often seem rather tame, allowing a close approach when they are busy feeding. ~ Audubon.org

What a day. We arrived at 7:30am and didn't leave till around 5:30pm. Many debates on where to be, upper or lower fields. We ended up at the Cold Soil side, on the paved path, about half way up. Things were looking dim during the morning hours, but around 4:30pm an explosion of 4 shorties happened. Amazing to see. We all had a great time.

The skies were mostly cloudy, sometimes a bad thing, but if it was clear out, this shot wouldn't happen. We would be shooting right into the sun. As it was, most of the 300 or so shots were shadowed bringing out some noise. Took a gamble shooting at half the speed I would normally shoot flight shots at.

Beautiful and close - it sat there, right in front of us. In the wind, between hail and rain showers. Feel sorry for them who has to do with this horrible long lasting weather

Flying low scanning through the field.

This lovely Owl didnt mind me being there

As we were heading to the car, it sat there in fading light. Giving me lot of time to get a shot to come out right. Thank you, Owl!
