On the way back from Studley Royal we called into Teesside so we could catch up with the Short-eared Owl action. At least two were out hunting as well as being harassed by Crows.

The Crow chased the Owl directly above me.
This Buzzard was also being harassed by Crows.
My wife and I decided to have another trip to Studley Royal to try and get to see the Red Deer rutting. We did see some of what I would call practice rutting by some of the males but not the real full-on thing that we were hoping for. I think most of the images speak for themselves so notmanywords. Once again, a couple of the images are a bit graphic so do not look if you are sensitive.
Not something you see every day.
We saw this on the way back to the car.
…at the beginning of last month didn’t produce much in the way of wildlife however I did manage to get some images.

Female Roe Deer.

I went to where I thought they were going and hid
behind a bush and waited and sure enough the female turned up.
The breeze was coming from her to me so I don’t think
she could smell me but I think she knew I was there.
Although there is grass in the way I’m still pleased
with images.
