Tonight the light was hit and miss and somewhat dark, but the sun did peek though from time to time, it was very windy and so I didn’t go for my walk with much hope, Barn Owls dont like hunting in strong winds.
However, I spotted the Owl flying in the distance and made my way to a sheltered corner of the field , and luckily managed to watch him for a few minutes, before he turned and flew with the wind, over the Willow plantation and was gone.
Making my way back, I spotted a lone Roe Deer, running though the grassland, and just managed to grab a few shots as he crossed the path, had a scratch on an old post and then was gone.
Not a bad evening walk considering my hopes were low !
