Went up to Pow hill to try out the new lens,Bit like a Pantomime,Waited around 15 minutes and little Black tail turned up,Then he was chased away by the cock Pheasant,I flicked pine cones at it but it ignored me so I jumped up and chased it,Turned round and there's Black tail helping itself to the pine nuts in my carrier bag...Turned around again and there's the cock pheasant with it's three wives gobbling up what was left of the pine nuts...I give up......R.

Moral of story - leave the pine nuts at home - put them on your breakfast cereal :)

This really is an exceptional shot - splendid !

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I think it may have been a planned conspiracy Richie! LOL Such a cute capture with the little flowers all around him.

I've long felt that the animals are too smart for us. At least you got a wonderful shot out of the encounter. Very nice!
