These photographs were taken in North Lincolnshire where up to a dozen Short-eared Owls have been seen in the air at once as they hunt for mice and voles over scrubland. Beautiful birds, but tricky to catch in flight as they don't come out to hunt until late afternoon when light levels have dropped. I am sure these birds will continue to be well photographed over the winter months as they provide such enigmatic subjects.
