The worst kept secret in Greater Manchester is the location of several short-eared owls and a couple of barn owls on the local mosses. Apparently it's being kept secret so that swarms of photographers don't descend on the site, yet today there were swarms of photographers at the site. In fact it seems to me that keeping it secret simply keeps it from birders who do not know the right people, and ironically, the presence of a few extra birders might actually help police the photographers.
