That owl is a bad thing to people in my family, but still cool pic. My son is a licensed falconer and currently uses red-tail hawks to hunt. I'll have to get him to see your pic.

No worry mate, the bird is in the UK so everything is safe.

You mean they can hunt foxes with owls now?

It seems that it's illegal to kill a fox by shooting it during a fox hunt, so the way I understood it from the birder is that they can take the fox by using either the Eagle Owl, or a Golden Eagle.
