    What a great Photo ! Since they are so small I know how hard it is to capture. The background is perfect and sharpness is on the spot !!

  • Thanks for your compliments Karen!

    he is a scrawny little thing
    is it a baby?
    nice shot

  • I’m not sure but I think it may have been a mature specimen, from memory I think it was about 25cm or so long including the tail.
