Greetings from Kirkcudbright where, at sea level, were observed last week a pair of spoonbills...I did take a picture of one of them but if I didn't tell you what it was you wouldn't recognise it, so I won't bother to post it. (While I was creeping up on it most stealthily, a boat came along and it flew away.)
Is that a marmot?!
Alpine Marmot (Marmota Marmota), over here they call it a Murmeltier....
Have a happy & rabies free holiday TonNl
I'd love to know how you managed to get so close to it - or do you have particularly big equipment?
Oh come on, I was taking about his camera. Dear me....
@toffeeboy: I didn't come close to it, but it (don't know if it is a he or a she..) came close to me, first it inspected my camerabag for anything edible, after that it tried to take a bite of the shoelaces of my mountainboots, but the picture was taken with my Sigma 300mm lens in macro mode, which means I was about 1.5 meters away (...first time I used that macro mode on anything else than insects, butterflies or flowers btw...)
@ tonnl - thanks for that. It's a great shot - I'm just getting into photography (I bought a Canon Digital SLR 400 earlier this year) so I'm keen to get any tips and advice on lenses etc...
Ooh, I get to quote The Big Lebowski! "Nice marmot..."
