Short-eared Owl in The Desert
As I arrived at The Point today a call on the radio from LG about a Short-eared Owl at the back of Jarmans, almost immediately I was able to call him back to let him know of a Barn Owl that flew out of the Old Lighthouse Garden and ended up in The Sanctuary. As I made my way through the Broome across The Desert I flushed 2 Hares and Chiffchaffs were all around. An Osprey flew over the NE end of The Desert where 2 Wheatears were feeding, further on 2 Redstarts in bushes that were full of Chiffchaffs and small numbers of Blackcaps.
