Due to recent wintry weather conditions it’s been a challenging time in the Peak District National Park running my Mountain Hare workshops while doing my own photography. My clients and I were able to spend some wonderful moments with the Mountain Hares that live in this region of England.
Short-eared Owls are commonly seen hunting during the day here in the UK. During the Winter months their numbers can increase greatly with an influx of birds from the continental.
If you’d like to see and learn more about these beautiful owls, I run Short-eared Owl workshops all year round.
