Now I wish my camouflage was that effective! Great shot John - I must make an effort to look for these again this winter.

Crikey John, how did you spot this guy - infra-red goggles

?

Great shot as Pete said

Could only be bettered by a lower PoV - or was it a question of 'out of the vehicle and straight on the bear menu'?

That is amazing camouflage - well spotted and captured

Hi John,

An absolute cracker! Not only, how did you see it, but how did you expose this!

Very nice shot John and a very good capture
