I saw 3 last year - none this year. I normally see them late at night. I used to walk my wife home late at night from the station (she changed jobs a few years ago so I don't anymore) and saw loads.

Excellent. Love the first image in the initial post. That's an angle you don't normally see. Also enjoyed the behavior shots.

Maybe they have evolved to only come out at night so as to avoid the unwanted attentions of school kidsߘ
