Seen by a SEO

With about an hour of light remaining when I got home, I paid a quick visit to Cotham Flash. The flash itself is still not much more than a muddy puddle, and the pools in the field to the south actually look more promising - indeed, Carl C had a Ruff and 6 Snipe on them in the last few days, but there was nothing except Lapwings on them tonight.

However, a Short-eared Owl more than made up for the lack of waders. It allowed me to approach remarkably close and get some reasonable pics, although the light was fading by now. Getting bored of my presence, it then took to quatering the grassland, before appearing sat in the roadside hedge when I returned to my car - brilliant!
