Barn Owl in the Fylde

March 1, 2010:
In bright sunshine in early March, it was perhaps a little surprising to see this Barn Owl freely hunting over fields near Stakepool

A few minutes later it settled on a fence post by the roadside, so giving an opportunity to take a photo from inside the car before it spotted me and immediately took off.

One week later, I saw the bird again in more or less the same place where it was hunting over rough fields before finally perching on an isolated post.
