For the third or fourth time, we've seen Barn Owls in this area of Suffolk.
We've seen them at Ramsholt and Wantisden.
This one was near Blaxhall, on 2nd February 2008.
All three images are snipped out of much larger pictures, of which the owl is a very small part!
Photos 95 and 96 are particularly fuzzy because the camera focussed on the nearby grass.
Photo 97 was taken from about 50 yards away. Not great photos but what a lovely sight.
For more information on Barn Owls (and much better photos!) visit the Barn Owl Trust website.
