causing a rush to find it in the trees outside the chalet. It has ear tufts, but they are usually folded back unless it is disturbed. Something else about these photos, they were all taken handheld at 1/60th of a second, something I would not have believed possible until I tried it. The lighting is just a normal hand torch, I would not use a flash with night birds as it would be highly unethical as it can damage their eyes. The hand holding at such a slow shutter speed was made possible by the combination of optical image stabilisation of the 400mm f1.8 lens, the ability of the lens to open to f1.8, and the in-body image stabilisation of the Canon R5 which is off the scale amazing.
