It’s been a strange year, most of the usual spots have been disappointing and with little to post the habit of posting seems to wane. The only constant all summer have been the little owls but only for a brief time in the evenings, usually when the best of the light has gone. I have tried this year to get them up of the ground onto a perch and to some extent they have played ball. Getting flight shots of them has been a whole different thing. I have a few shots they may be of interest, they are all cropped which seems now to be an issue on the forum and my pp is not the best but I like the shots, hope you do as well.

All comments are welcome.

Bob.
