I complain about the UK being a bad place for a wildlife photographer to be. It's a set of tiny islands, and we've eliminated much of the biodiversity we have. Barn Owls are still left, and are one of the species that make it all worthwhile. Of course they are hardly unique to the UK...but what makes our Barnie's special is their willingness to hunt in the daytime.
