That's a great shot. I usually only see them shooting across my path.

The photo clearly shows one feature that distinguishes weasels from stoats. Your weasel has a very ragged boundary between the cream on his chest and the brown on his sides. In a stoat, this is generally much straighter. Not sure that's so easy to tell in the field if they don't stand still!

Mammal society were asking for record submissions of sightings, especially of stoats and weasels
