Unsure of what bird this was honestly. Went to take the rubbish to the bins about 7.50pm today, and saw this fairly large owl type bird swoop onto my neighbours roof. Would love fore someone to be able to identify it, as im not sure Ive ever seen anything quite like it. I could not hear it flying at all, just chanced a glimpse of it in the periphery. I wondering it its some kind of nightjar or boobook?
