She was so close that I could see she had really shiny black hooves. They looked like painted toenails!

Today's mammal is a water shrew, taken this morning. Not what you call in focus I am afraid so declined from posting in the galery. Took 35 shots mainly of sediment!

Great video of the deer even a Muntjac (only rumours of them down here).
Nice shot af the doe looking back at you through the kitchen window, seems to be asking for more seed.
Regards
Rob

Shirl,
Thats a lovely shot of a water shrew, it shows just how busy these little chaps are, never still.
You done well to see it let alone get it on camera and 35 shots to 1 is a better ratio than my photography.
Regards
Rob

Shirl | That is great. I have never seen one of these. You were very lucky to get this shot.

There were 2 possibly 3 from about 11am, they move so fast and stir up so much sediment I had no idea where they were going to emerge. Will keep trying to get a decent in focus shot!

Doug | Promise I will try harder, it was very point and squirt, they are a bit too quick for me! Thanks for the comments though, until yesterday I hadn't seen a live one at all, so I am still quite excited.

Shirl | Sorry Shirl.

I meant DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE FOCUS! (FORGET ABOUT THE FOCUS!)
What a fantastic shot!
