Battling Short Eared Owl's at Gedgrave Christmas Eve

I spent 3 hours at Gedgrave Marshes for the Short Eared Owl's without success, so decided to make my way home, I was half way down the track towards my car, when I turned around to give the river wall another look and low and behold spotted two SEO's battling along the river wall, so rushed back and managed to get some distant photo's








After a short while one of them decided to come closer and it caught a vole and sat in the grass, giving me a chance of a closer view

Another day at Gedgrave

Sun was shining so decided to give Gedgrave another look, the Hen Harrier was successfully hunting on and off all day.
 






A small flock of Starling were using the sheep as mobile perches

 
Cracking male Stonechat kept a eye on me
