Just north of Great Hidden Farm on a public footpath. Looking north along the path and over a field to a hedge. We walked past this Tawny Owl on the post who appeared to have its eyes closed but followed us with its head, it was still there on the way back but as we passed flew in front of us to land on the path so we then had to walk very close to it to get by. We think it might have been unwell or injured as this does not seem to be normal Tawny Owl behaviour. It was very nice to see it out in the wild though and get a picture.
