I hadn't seen a Barn Owl at Eastbridge for more than a year
Their usual hunting grounds suffered serious flooding last winter and spring
plus the Environment Agency had been doing extensive work on the riverbanks through the summer.
I thought they had left the area but last week I saw this one hunting the fields,
I couldn't get very close but was quite pleased with the way this turned out
and it's wonderful to know that they are still around
Tony, this image is amazing! Not only is it a sharp capture of a beautiful bird, but the story that lies in the habitat makes it extra special. I love images like this, and best of all is how well contrasted the owl is against the b/g which keeps the bird in immediate focal perspective. Excellent!
