The Short eared owls at Sandwich bay were very active yesterday, flying so close you could almost touch them. The last picture (11) shows the owl with prey so skip if squeamish

  1. Wonderful photos! I was just down the road in Pegwell yesterday, managed to get a (fairly poor) photo of a heavily pregnant vixen 😊

  2. To even see those tiny rodents in the vegetation and have the precision to swoop down and catch them is quite impressive really.

  3. There’s a confusingly named sub that would appreciate these great images: r/superbowl also there’s a somewhat little-known sub called r/ukecosystem.

  4. Phenomenal photos, genuinely beautiful.

    Also, that mouse looks positively aghast that it’d been caught.

  5. I initially read ‘the short-eared owl sandwich’ and panicked. Beautiful photos!

  6. Well the mouse doesn’t look very happy.

    Excellent photos.
