More Barn Owls today. Well one for me and one for Jane. Jane's was while she took Bunty out this morning flying through the estate behind the local 'Spar' shop. Mine was hunting the roadside near East Chevington when I was on my way to work, the early sun glinting through its translucent wings, lovely.

Only other thing I've seen today was a little blue and orange cock Sparrowhawk hedge hopping through Bedlington. I like Sparrowhawks, these little assassins are so full of life you can just about hear them buzz as they go past...

Stew is this the start of Boulmer Birder's Birds Bird Blog? Had two Sparrowhawks myself today, one on the footpath outside home and the other crossed the road at the bottom of Whorral Bank.
