Barn Owl -Not the best photo of a barn owl but my friend Mali and I had the privilege of watching this beauty come out after the storm and fly around the fields, during the day. Magic.

Lucky you! I've only seen one once. Caught it after it landed, but not the flyover, which was so thrilling I forgot to push the shutter button ;)

Love the Muscovy, like the Grebe Keith...But not just for sentimental reasons alone, this is my choice today mate, a beautiful & unexpected sight.
