Pygmy owl ...

On our way to the Belmeken Reservoir, we stopped off in some high level conifer woods to walk along and try and find/call a Pygmy Owl. Wow - with a Pygmy Owl sat close to a Nutcracker and a Crested Tit - what a trio! 

Driving up into the conifer woodland and snow.

Glimpses of higher up.

Spectacular lichens, cones and Wood Ant nests.

Pygmy Owl, being annoyed by a Goldcrest. The Goldcrest makes you realise how small the owl is!
