I think this is common stump brittlestem but need confirmation. Epping Forest - the tree may be hornbeam.

Hello everyone...Ive been that busy...and taking photos of others had taken priority. I took this today, because;-
1) I love the thought of Spring approaching and
2) Someone (missing my uploads) asked me to show my face!!
This shot whilst not as good as those I would take later further down the lane, has a lovely soft feel created by the first rays of a new day.
On reviewing my pics from last week, I realised I had actually filmed both the upper barn owls.
These two shots were from my first encounter of the day. He flew off down the lane, having watched me for a few minutes, as I crouched down by a farm gate.
When I came across his partner a few minutes later, I incorrectly assumed they were the same bird.
Barn owl (Tyto alba)
Yorkshire Dales - Upper Barn male
Many thanks to all those who take the time to comment on my photos. It is truly appreciated.

I was watching Springwatch this evening and got a feeling of deja vu when I saw the Snipe photo on the back of their cue cards, and on the screen at the back of Chris Packham and Michaela Strachan. I don't mind the BBC using my photograph but it would have been nice to have been credited.
I took the photograph in Upper Teesdale four years ago.
