Went to look for herons, but they had scattered, taking advantage of the weather as well. This is the only image that sort of worked after cropping ...

Mob of Emu
by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

Not a great photo. I shot through the car window as I did not want to disturb them. Emus can in my experience be very flighty.

This is the first time I have ever seen a mob in the wild. If I am lucky, I might see one or two together.

My local Barn Owl sat on the fence around my cottage between 08:00 and 08:15 this morning scanning the ground for prey items. It was photographed through a double glazed door at distances varying from 7 to 15 metres (20-40 feet).

Another capture through the double glazed kitchen door, this time a Common Buzzard Buteo buteo which is also after rodents in the field used by the Barn Owl recently posted in this thread. It was little further away than the Barn Owl had been.

A Barn Owl driven by hunger to hunt during the day, and successfully, it's caught a vole, probably a Field Vole based on my dissection of pellets from this individual during recent months.
