I’d like to loan a couple of those foxes Pondrader sometime, please, but I‘ll PM you first so it‘ll be our little secret.

No problem Richard... I have stuffed Moose and bear if you need as well Beaver are very popular this time of year...

Shipping to the UK will not be to expensive I don't think !!

O.... today only I have a two for one sale on Red Squirrels....

Squirrels are a little worried about the boat ride !!

OK Jeff - Looks like I am going to find it difficult to get the better of you

However; I could exchange a couple of ships (not raced or rallied) for a fox and a couple of red squirrels how about that?

If you wish to transport your large personal menagerie around you might like to convert a car carrier.
I offer RCC Passion. Convertible to 'Noah's Ark' or in your case 'Pondrader's Ark'

Received mine yesterday...

Join the human race. But pcs, where do you really get your supply of stuffed birds from?
We had a parrot once - it died - so we had it stuffed ........
.....With Polyfilla

Sorry, old joke, I won’t use it again

All joking aside, having a garden at the edge of a small city, planting flowers with insects in mind( see my posts in the macro forum:all from my garden), leaving dead plants and leaves where they are until the spring, feeding the birds everyday for the last years(more in cold times) and using a hide and being patiënt all helps. You have to do something to get pictures if you've not get the time to spend all day with a camera or if your forumname is not pondrader ).

In reality you are very right when one thinks about it. My house sits on about a 200 x 200 feet clearing with wild bush all around and in some directions km’s, So things just sneak up on you.. for instance I was just outside trying to get a couple snaps of the birds and there just at the edge of the bush is a doe looking at me.. she was very cautious and ready to flee. But worked her way onto the open snow. So I took a snap..

Un cropped .... as it was here this afternoon 100-400LII + 1.4III

Wonderful shot Jeff. A real pleasure to view. Interesting to see what you’re doing with the EOS R.

Red squirrels are less expensive to ship... it's a weight thing, after all.

I have been playing with this lens for a bit, and its amazing. there seems to be more wow factor in these posts though. I will work on my editing.
