I often see and hear owls and can just imagine those photos; they are truly majestic creatures on the wing.

Last year i had a week on Anglesey, Aberffraw, and while walking through the dunes i was lucky enough to have a barn owl hunting around me. It didn't take any notice of my dogs and came within a few feet.It dropped down a few times before coming up holding something and flying away.A wonderful experience.

One time about 3 years ago I was standing in a hedgrow drawing the landscape, quite engrossed in my activity, when I suddenly felt compelled to turn to look to one side. There was a barn owl, gliding silently along, up the hill and over the top, about 3 or 4 feet from the edge of the field. It didnt drop on to any thing, but it was an amazing sight nevertheless...especially how big it was seen up close.

Stunning pics. We are fortunate enough to be surrounded by many acres of meadow and get to see the Barn owls almost every day :)
