Short Eared Owls are fairly thin on the ground down here in Cornwall\/Devon, with just very small numbers wintering on the moors in the far west and the odd one or two closer to my home on Bodmin moor, this year seems to have been a bit of an exception with more than usual turning up near the coast.<\/p>\n

At least two ,maybe three have found one particular Cornish headland to their liking and have showed well on many afternoons, seemingly unconcerned by the public sharing their patch.<\/p>\n

This was the third time I’ve visited, the two previous times the weather was dull, windy and cold, and although I had some nice views and managed a few o.k shots, today was bright and sunny and quite warm for February so resulting in great views and some better images. Beautiful birds.<\/p>\n
