Not an Owl

Should be going on an owl hunt this evening with @wakelys but its not good weather to go barn owling.

I don't think I have ever seen such a succesful egret, it caught a couple of fish and some frogs whilst I watched it. I was lucky with this shot!

Pop across to The Darkroom to see an exotic, and rare, bird that has migrated to my garden.

[Susan Wakely]

Fabulous. Where was this? Fav

[Maggiemae]

There must be plenty of fish in the water. Always get muddled between and egret and a heron.

Great close up of the bird. I can see its feathers so clearly.

Maybe if you went on an egret hunt, you would spot an owl.....
