The Short-eared Owl that was here yesterday came and went several times during the day. It was obviously feeling quite at home and trying out different locations in the garden.

Someone said that the birds seemed to know that they would have their picture taken if they visited our garden. This Owl at least seemed quite keen on being photographed. Alas, it is probably not on-line to see how great it looks.
