More rain and a weekend away

With the continuing miserable weather I decided to join two friends, Richard Hart and Angus Molyneaux, on a trip to Holland at the weekend. Our target was a Hawk Owl at Zwolle which has been present since early December. There was also a chance of Pygmy Owl and Caspian Plover but it looks like the latter may have lost a chase with a Merlin yesterday morning, just before we arrived and there was no sign of the Pygmy Owl, but the Hawk Owl certainly made up for it along with plenty of geese.
There are some photos of the owl on my flickr site.
Back at home I went down to Lumsdale to photograph the waterfall this morning which has certainly benefited from the rain. The Great Grey Shrike was present over the weekend but not much else I understand.
