Gosh dunedin - how on earth did you get that close? I can't even stop the car 200 yrds from one!

Very well done.

Thanks, actually was in the car leaving Mortons Loch and he was sitting on a post very interested in something on the ground,managed to get camera out of bag and get him sat there and then he jumped on to ground and from there onto tree not to far away, but just very lucky, time to set camera at manual. I was probably no more than 10mtrs away, you'll notice I said mtrs although I still work in old measures.
