One More Go at the Wols




Another 40-minute dash to Burwell after work for the last fifteen minutes of daylight. This time I stood on the bridge over the lode and was partly hidden by the sides. All photos at 1/1000th second at high ISO.

Dusk Patwol




There were wols everywhere at Burwell this afternoon, in golden sunlight.

Dressed for Winter



Hat and Wellies. Job done!

Wot, no wols?




Nope, too windy for the poor little dears. So Miles, Ann and I were reduced to photographing each other, muntjaks and RAF Tristars. The kite-style wol was from last weekend.

More wols




It looks like the African veldt, but it's still a fen in Cambridgeshire. Ann is very tired at the end of the safari.

Short-Eared Owls




Lovely low winter sun at Burwell Fen was perfect for photography of the owls.

Along the Lode



We went to Burwell late in the afternoon to see the Short-Eared Owls. Saw one at a distance, and a Barn Owl closer, but the sunset was already upon us.
