Well done indeed, and I have to say that the first image Id be happy with a owl heron and looks like a liitle egret? The last flight shot is winner for me.

many thanks

Thanks guys, yes it is a little egret. Shortly after taking this photo the owls mate came along with a mouse and flew straight into it, basically saying go and catch some more food. The last one is my fav. and easily one of the best I have taken.

Thanks guys, I advice anyone in the west sussex area to come down to pagham to have a look, watching them hunt really is amazing. Just before 4 was taken they were turning upside down and dropping food to each other.

Must have been great seeing them, and even better to come away with a shot like that last one.
Great stuff!
