Male barn owl, surprised to hear my camera clicking, ringed, as there is an extensive owl ringing program here in Northumberland

Females usually darker, and if it was viewed from the front, you would see more spots on the female...plus with this one, I know the pair, the male is ringed, and the female isnt..

This one is the female of this pair..

Winter visitors to the Southwest, the Ibis was once a common resident known as the Black Curlew. the Spoon bills, an adult and a youngster of the year are part of a group of up too 12  that winter near me, there are a couple of places with similar populations that will hopefully breed here in the next few years.
