Hi,

One from Saturday morning when it was rather dull and threatening to rain, conditions that I like for furry animals.

Went with a bit more reach this weekend...

All the best

Great portrait Phil just the job.

I spent the biggest half of yesterday still looking for these guys. Managed one in the finish but no shot so I am green with envy.

very nice Phil, love the pose, do find the reed at the front on the right a bit distracting though,

Now all you've got to do is work out how to get down to water-level with him!

Nicely caught Phil.
