Long-eared Owl: at last!

Linda suggested a post-prandial drive to Strumpshaw in a final effort to catch up with the long-staying immature LEO. We arrived at around 7.00pm and spent a pleasant hour and a half chatting with delightful Suffolk birder Rob Holmes: Peter Ransome, Justin Lansdell, Dick F and many other well-known faces were there too...

By 8.30 Linda and I decided to call it a day, at which point Justin gave us the nod that the owl had been found in the overflow carpark. All this and an extraordinarily confiding Brown Hare by reception!
