Farmyard Little Owls.

Ray Kilham • 30 July 2022

on the hottest day of the year...

Again, another early start and long drive ahead, farmyard in Suffolk this time was the destination. 



This time, I had been invited to a working farmyard with a home to a family of little owls, as it turned out, I had chosen what turned out to be the hottest day of the year so far to sit in a hide 30+° !!!!

It has been a considerable while since I wrote a blog post, so here goes!! Few wildlife encounters are as rewarding as watching a beaver at work. Emerging quietly from the water as daylight fades, these shy yet industrious mammals demonstrate remarkable engineering skills, felling trees with astonishing precision and constructing dams that reshape entire ecosystems. Their glossy brown fur, distinctive flat tail, and calm, purposeful behaviour make them a captivating subject for wildlife photographers. Patience is often rewarded with intimate moments of feeding, swimming, grooming, or carrying branches, offering a glimpse into the secretive life of one of Britain's most successful wildlife reintroductions.
