By the way this is a great capture as these guys (gals) only seen to come out a night!

Trevor Needham replied

Thanks missasha (hope you don’t mind me shortening it!). These guys are so docile, they are positively friendly! Get as close as you like! Do you have a macro lens?
missashapoopoo

i don’t mind! i have macro, not sure about the lens?!
Trevor Needham replied

Is your camera point and shoot or DSLR? Either way if you have macro you should be able to focus pretty close to your subject.
