I had a few hours spare on Wednesday before a visit from my youngest son. So I called Brian to see if he fancied a quick trip over Wanstead Flats to see if we could find one of the Little Owls that are over there for a year tick.
Brian is free so we meet up and it's only 15 minutes before we are walking the flats after getting the car parked, it's off to search.
We spent a little time in the first copse without any luck, as we walked to the next one we met Marko, he had just seen a pair and steered us in the right direction.
Knowing we have the right tree helps and after 10 minutes Jimmy spots one of the Owls and we are all getting a great view of it.
With only a limited time we never got to see the pair, which was a shame.
But a tick is a tick and nice to get out if only for a short time.
