Photographer Jack Lodge captured a thrilling battle between a barn owl and a common hawk as the pair squabbled over the owl's catch.
Photographer Jack Lodge has spent over 30 evenings and early mornings with barn owls in the U.K. but has never witnessed anything as dramatic as what he captured last weekend.that he has never seen another predator try and take a barn owl’s catch until a hungry hawk showed up on Friday night.
Common hawks are confusingly known as buzzards in the U.K. but semantics aside the barn owl won the competition and saw off the raptor totally unscathed as it was back hunting for its next meal just minutes later.
