Went on a walk with the other half earlier, and came across this little guy who wasn't bothered about me sitting on the bench right next to it! Never been this close before:

very nice Chris! its always a good feeling when you get a genuinely good shot of an animal like that as actually getting the chance for the shot is rare!

Cheers Dan! Yeah I agree, I kept expecting it to fly off but just sat there! But then when I went extremely close (as in, thought it would be a good idea to try and stroke it haha) it flew off.
