Barn Owl (Tyto alba)

Well Peeps,
I think we finally have the internet connected here out in the boonies. I did find a hotspot on saturday, albeit very briefly. Sorry I have missed all your lovely bird pics over the weekend. We've had a bit of a family thing going on all weekend, as Dan's folks were here too. We've been getting to know them, and been to the local pub for a few jars of the dark stuff, and a nice meal. Its a great place out here in the sticks, and the plus side of it is...... Theres a pair of Barn Owls living in the barn in the yard. We have been sitting here watching them hunting in the fields in the afternoons. Earlier this morning I was out for a walk, and see this un perched in a tree across the field, and then it decided to fly towards me, before veering off through the woods. I know I'm gonna hate it here, ha! ha! ha! The bonus is, we're staying here until friday.
