Dunnock for dinner!

Had the day off work today, I went out mid morning and at the first site I sat quietly in the Landrover waiting for the owls to show, after a lengthy 4 hours the male owl finally showed, and it was well worth the wait as he had brought back dinner for his demanding youngsters, in the form of a............Dunnock!



At the second site of the day the wait was only a matter of minutes, it was also the first time ever that I have seen a pair here! They gave me some really nice close up views whilst they scrambled around a farmers muck heap looking for food.






A cracking day and some images that I am really pleased with, it could have been better though had it not been so drawn out and the fact that I totally messed up a couple of chances of a decent "flight" shot, not to worry though, there is always tomorrow as I have another day off work!
