Short-eared Owl, Asio flammeus |
On Thursday I went owl hunting again and saw two Short-eared
Owls perched on the fence posts as I descended the 2nd dip near The
Burgh. Neil then joined me and we saw them fly a few times and one dived twice
but caught nothing. Mostly they were on the ground so we assumed they had fully
fed. I also saw a Peregrine, two Red Kites and two kestrels. Yesterday the weather
changed for the worse as I arrived on site.
This morning I joined Sussex
Search and Rescue at Brighton following a tragic incident when two young
men disappeared into the sea the previous night: full
story here.
