Superbowl

From Brian Welch

Working on the assumption with the previous nights' falling snow that my local barn owl would have had limited success at hunting so it may come out early and in the hope that the lying snow on the fellside would reflect some light (normally comes out when too little light for photos) stood waiting in the fell road edge for it to appear from the farm. I was not disappointed.

It appeared at 3.30 p.m. and did a 20 minutes display over the lower fell before moving off up the fellside. Light interesting but not brilliant. Its mate even appeared briefly. Some good close passes photos below not cropped.
