I went for a short walk with my dogs and I was undecided if I should take my camera with me.
Boy; I'm glad I took it with me now! 
I couldnt believe my luck a photographical Smew and Little Owl on my Local patch.
I did have to get on my belly and crawl 30yds for the Smew. I wonder what my dogs thought when I was crawling along?
I was glad no one else was around to see me crawling in the wet grass

Nice, what a result. But I am wondering 'Why crawl on your belly? Presumably so there was less of you to see?' mmm

Nice shots. What were you doing that the owl was so disapproving of? |

Great photo of the owl 
Smartie maybe it was the crawling on the belly that caused the owl look !!! |

You are so lucky to see and take a picture of the owl in its own environment although it doesn't look too happy your in with it |
