A Short-Eared Owl composite created in Photoshop

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!!!

Another shot from last weeks visit to enjoy these beautiful owls

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.

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

Many thanks to all those who fave or comment always very much appreciated

I would like to post something other than owls, but I’m afraid that’s mostly all I have for you at the moment. Abberton reservoir.

Short-eared Owl (Asio flammeus)

A 'Short-eared Owl' with its lunch. ( had to resort to my archives for this one as I am not getting much action at the moment.)

No sign of any Short Eared Owls this afternoon unfortunately. So one from last year when they were still under the radar.

Was lucky enough to have this wonderful bird land on the post in front of me - only for it to be chased off by another Shortie - the lighter one in my previous posted shot - which then circled round and alighted on the next post. A magical thing to watch!

Taken with the RF 800mm lens - which prefers good light - so I had to use a really slow shutter speed and under expose to keep the ISO down to a reasonable level.

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).

A surprise for us both. Chance encounter with SEO while looking for Skylarks
