Otterburn, Northumberland, Feb.






A few days wandering the hills hoping for a few encounters with hunting Goshawks, my favorite and most special bird. The deep snow forced several Barn Owls to hunt all day and other highlights included a flock of 90 Reed Buntings with an attending Merlin, Red Squirrels and some lovely time spent watching confiding woodland birds.
