An amateur wildlife photographer from Norfolk made the
sighting of his life - not once but twice - when he photographed a long-eared
owl on consecutive days this week.
Brian Shreeve, 71, and his wife Ann, 72, of Hemblington, made
the rare sighting of the winged predator in the Ludham Marshes area on Monday
and Tuesday. He said: “I have never seen one of them before in my 50 odd years
of loving wildlife.”
Mr Shreeve, a keen wildlife photographer, said he and Mrs
Shreeve usually went out in the early morning and evenings during the week when
it was quieter.
“Ann acts as my spotter. When I’m looking through the
viewfinder she looks around to see what I’m missing.”
