Last week I drove up into the Lammermuir Hills,here in the Scottish Borders.I was looking for the short eared owls which had returned from their winter holidays down by the coast.
As many as 9 had been seen in one evening,but when I went I saw 4 and they were all very distant.I blame Ollie,he was in the back of the car navigating.
The male red grouse are looking very handsome at the moment though,so I did get some pictures.I’ve also included a couple of shorties,taken in the gloom and from a distance.
Iso 6400. As is the last image.
