Here's looking at you kid!

After a rather busy day in Peterborough and Deeping, a brief but productive walk round a local site was just what the doctor ordered!

The highlight was the target Long-eared Owls, of which I was rather hoping for some hunting shots of the adults if I was lucky, but instead I had to make do with the usual "in bush" shot, only this time with the squeaky gate chicks.

At first there appeared to be just the onesqueakyy gate, but moving round a bit soon revealed a second, younger bird.

Nice!

Back looking for the adults, all we could muster was a single Barn Owl and Little Owl. This smart White Ermine was nearly a gonna, but thankfully I spotted it and got the shot.
