Not seen the Short eared Owls in a while so had a ride over to East Yorkshire , the weather was poor being dark clouds and on and off rain, I also got covered in Mosquitoes . Managed to spot a few including a Ringtailed Hen Harrier , all flight shots are long distance heavy crops . 1/800 because of poor light so excuse the quality , nearest one was perched

Incredible series. Incredibly sharp. 1/800 of a sec. WOW!

Great shots. SEO's are fun. Thanks for sharing. I like the interactions between the birds.
Seems like some of your owls appear whiter than most we see around here (Northwest Washington State).

Thank you, yes I noticed one was much lighter in colour than the others . It was also quite a lot more aggressive than the others
