Frosty Morning - Tubney Fen

I had hoped to have seen Short Eared Owls yesterday morning but it was much too cold and frosty for them to have put in an appearance - I shall know that for another time.   Instead there were up to five Roe Deer foraging for vegetation that wasn't too frozen to eat.


There was also fog lying low at times, and without anything to eat, this Kestrel sat on a post for a long while - perhaps waiting for the sun to provide some warmth.    Such was the intensity of the frost, that mammalian hair on barbed wire was difficult to identify - Highland cattle, Roe Deer, Konik Pony?
