Surprisingly, Tawny Owls are very few and far-between on the Isle of Wight, but Little Owls, Barn Owls, Short-eared Owls (in the winter) and Long-eared Owls are all fairly common. I'd forgotten about this bit of video footage of a Long-eared Owl I came across early last year....they really are stunning creatures!
Hi Steve
ReplyDeleteI am heading to the Isle of Wight this week and could use some local knowledge so I was wondering if you could contact me as soon as you get this at jackebarnes@btinternet.com
Thanks
