Kestrel at RSPB Radipole on Saturday.

We got treated to a Marsh Harrier and a Sparrowhawk as well at this chap. Sadly the only half decent photo was this one, and he was a long way off using this bush as a feeding post.

Yesterday's trip to the Screech Owl Sanctuary in Cornwall was great fun, but tough! I've never tried shooting anything like this, so it was a steep learning curve (the inflight shots are almost entirely unusable) but I liked how a few turned out anyway. These are a Great Grey Owl, and Ashey Faced Owl, and an African Spotted Eagle Owl.
I think i've attached them correctly, sorry if i've made them huge!

Testing a canon 300mm f2.8 IS with 2xtc, to see how useable the combo is before racing. Wasn't much happening so just a boring duck photo.
