A Little owl looks down the lens of a camera and gives the photographer a cheeky wink. The owl, which was perched on a post, was photographed in a field close to Eclipse Falconry in Middleton, Staffordshire. Photographer Louise Morris, 54, of Belbroughton, Worcestershire, spotted the camera friendly bird of prey sitting on a post. Louise says: “I was very amused by the wink, as I’m sure the owl was as well.
