Worlaby Owls

I went out to worlaby yesterday and it was third time lucky for me when the short eared owls put on a magnificent dispaly.
there was one perched almost motionles on a tree stump for quite a while before going into a fantastic display.
As it got nearer to dusk the light was fading rapidly and unfortunately there wa some cloud cover, but the owls kept on hunting and displaying right until it got dark and it looked as thought there might have been about 6 or 7.
apparrently they hang around while march so hopefully we be back again in better light.
