Their maybe ocassions when some may say its time to put the camera away,well tonight was nearly one of those.
Tonight was the first time in the last 3 months were the Owl as not turned up in the first two hours from me first going in to the site ,curiosity got the better of me and i went for a walk around ,in doing so i spotted one of the juveniles quite high up in a Oak tree,this i found a bit unusual as the adults are normaly pretty near them ,however i soon spotted the problem about 30m away sat on the wall ..it was a Male peregrine..I am not sure how long the bird stopped as i went back to my hide ,but it was another 1 hour before the Male turned up and this coincided with the light going ,knowing i had no chance of getting some decent flight shots i took a gamble of trying to get head sharp ,the rest i was not concerned about ...Not the best shots i have achieved this year but considering a high iso of 3200 and a slow shutter speed of 1/320 sec i was quite pleased ...
