Barn Owl

 Barn Owl, Whinchat and Stonechat from the beginning of the month.

The Swallows did not like the Barn Owl being around.

However, the Swallows eventually left it alone so it could carry on hunting.

Strumpshaw Fen wasn’t far from where we were staying so we went to have a look around. I’m pleased we did we had a cracking day out with my first Norfolk Hawker seen and photographed. I was going to do this blog in two parts but we are having trouble with the internet so while we have a signal I will do a long blog just in case.
