Satrted a full day at Rye Nature Reservve with this Barn Owl hunting in front of me, he/she didn't come really close but was a joy to watch for 20 mins. I also viewed again on the way home, same bird I would think hunting at 3pm.

I like this one a lot. Even the softness doesn't spoil it for me, adds to the atmosphere of the image. Nice one.
