Barn Owl - 2nd session

The Barn Owl was out hunting again this evening, but not until the light was fast fading, so the shutter speed for photographs was not as I'd wished for tonight.


The Owl quickly caught it's prey on 3 occasions before I left, testimony that it must now have young to feed.



It's on nights like these that I realise how much better a faster lens would be! (time to start saving again....!)

Barn Owl

Found a new site with Barn Owls this evening, A Male was hunting, and I'm hoping it is finding food for it's mate who is on a nest. I can only confirm this if the hunting intensifies of the next few weeks when the young are hatched.

The light was fading when I took these photographs so the ISO was high to maintain a decent shutter speed.
