This little chap looked more than happy on the ground ripping away at bits on the ground.
There was no sign of a nest above, but presumable he had departed earlier than expected so lets hope he was ok.

Hi Major,

Beautiful capture! I love it! It has a certain cutey factor about it! Let's hope it makes it!

Looks a bit bleary, like he's woken up in that ditch after a heavy night!
