 No Short-eared Owl or Barn Owl this time just some of the other birds seen at Burdon Moor a few days ago.

This female Kestrel looks to have a crossed beak.

 Toward the end of last month at Burdon Moor I managed to catch a female Kestrel that had just caught a Vole and was flying off with it.

Four Raptor Afternoon…

 …a couple of days ago with Barn Owl, Short-eared Owl, Kestrel and Buzzard all seen. The Short-eared Owl came in from very high up from the north east where it was being harassed by a Rook. It eventually landed on a fence post and I managed to get a few shots before it dropped from the post into the field and I didn’t see it again (I think it was spotted by someone else later). The Barn Owl showed up just as the light was going however the Kestrel put on a great show the whole time we were there.
