Last Critters of 2015.

Well the weather has generally been rubbish for photography but I have managed to get out to a few places. Probably the highlight of the week has been seeing 3 species of Owl, Barn, Long Eared and Short Eared. I thought I might stand a chance of getting some decent pics of a GN Diver at Carsington as there are 3 present but the one I saw was always too distant. I got a better view of one at Filey along with a distant Surf Scoter (just a record shot).
