Sunday Evening 28.10.12

A 90 minute tour South of Stonehaven after dark rewarded us with two different owl species - a short-eared owl and a beautiful (are there any other?) barn owl.
Using the pop-up flash with a 400mm lens in the dark is not a recipe for success but managed some record shots which are captioned below - the first two are cropped and manipulated a bit but the large picture is untouched to give an idea of the scene.

    Aye some folks have neve seen a Barn Owl, so there's nothing to apologise for with these pictures.
    You seem to be luckier than most for finding them.
