We were on one of our favourite afternoon walks when we saw a raptor approaching. We usually see marsh harrier on this walk so this red kite was a very welcome surprise. We have never see one here before so a double bonus.
And then Simon says 'whats that quartering that field'? Only a flipping short eared owl....and then another arrived and another and one sat on a post. What a good late afternoon walk.....red kite and 4 short eared owls ! Brilliant !
This one had a right old tussle with a local crow
Straight into the sun but an owl on a post nonetheless
Just love the colour of the sky in these two pics x
A fantastic afternoon all round
