These are short eared owls (asio falmmeus). This is typical behaviour for the species, flying low over the rough grazing hunting in daylight. Tawny owls are generally more woodland creatures and far more nocturnal. Short eared owls are migratory and many fly in from the continent at winter. Hope that helps,
SEO for sure nice one :)
