We finally left Abbey Farm and set off back home for dinner - however, Peter wasn't finished with me yet and on a quiet back country lane found me a Little Owl that I could properly look at.
High up on a telegraph pole. Down went the window and out came the camera.... click, click, click then he flew off to another pole so tried again.
Got back in the car and realised I'd been shooting at f7.1 in the very nearly dark, so made a bit of a mess of that, didn't I.
Still I got a picture of my 4th bird Lifer of the trip, making 7 in all with the mammals and a call.
Thanks to Keith Dickinson for managing to get something visible out of the image for me.
We don't get Little Owls in Scotland, and I've failed on numerous attempts in England and Wales to see them.
Thanks Peter, Gillian, Ian and Family for all the lovely hospitality that weekend.
