Stoat226 viewssee the two shots aside of a stoat with it's prey, which is a Redwing, the Stoat dropped the Redwing when it saw me, I moved back a safe distance & when I returned to check the Redwing had gone, so the stoat had obviously returned & carried off it's spoils.

The Mole catcher has been busy272 viewsTaken a few miles down the road fron Newton Marsh, on a rural lane near Kirkham. It's A distressing image but part of country life. Farmers employ Mole-catchers to rid them of moles, which are a significant pest as their tunneling undermines the structure of the field. It's an old country tradition for the mole-catchers to hang the moles they've caught & killed from a fence on the farmers land to show they've been effective at their job.

Stoat257 viewsI've seen quite a few Stoat (or maybe Weasels?) here, but this was the only one I was quick enough to photograph, as you can see it was taken at range and sadly I had my Sigma 105mm Macro lens fitted at the time, a zoom lens would've made this into a half decent shot :-( .
