Re: OWLS

Back with the "new" little owls this morning, I'm pretty certain there are nippers somewhere in the tree as they are reluctant to leave it even though the path passes below. If they do they just fly in to the next tree 5 or 6 yards away. A bit of a strange green tint to the first photo which is ...

"Hello up there"... or LO up there... which ever you prefer. A little owl sat back up on his telegraph pole outside a cemetery this morning.

Cheers Snappy. Probably one of my favourite spots overlooking the valley in the background. A haven for the hares as it's away from footpaths.

Two of four foxes out hunting in the local fields at sunrise this morning. The other two evaded the camera but still a nice way to start the walk off.

Lovely PB. I do need to work on my shutter speed and birds in flight. I think swallows and skylarks are the ones I'm concentrating on. May as well fail with them than a slower bird :)

Re: FOXES

A tiny cub in the local valley this morning. Came out of the hedgerow of a field right next to me and then settled down for a sleep. Two siblings kept popping out who weren't quite as tired.
