Short-eared Owl Dive






This weekend, I spent some time watching the local Short-eared Owls, and what a sight they were! Judging by the high numbers of Kestrels and Barn Owls around this winter, it must be a good vole year, and the Short-eared Owls seem to be making the most of it.

At one location alone, there was an incredible nine Short-eared Owls hunting together. These striking winter visitors are always a highlight of the colder months, and with such high numbers around, I’m looking forward to capturing more of their aerial prowess over the coming weeks.

Hopefully, time allows for plenty more encounters as the season continues!
