Young pine marten

Wow. that is an amazing close up, so much detail, even the reflection in the eye is quite amazing.

Fantastic shot! Love the detail and background color!

Thanks for the comments. They are normally very quick animals and hardly stay still long enough to focus on!

This one, being so young, was so fascinated about the world around him that he sat and gazed at it.

I'd only had the 7D for 5 days so I was very pleased with the colour and detail.

Cuuuute! Great background

Fantastic

lovely portrait

That is a great shot. Only pine marten I ever saw was gone in a flash.

very nice shot Laurence

Thanks people, I think I'll put up this shot in the thread of images from this lens.

Thats not a Pine Marten mate, where was it taken, it doesn't look like a Pure Polecat to me either, i would go for Ferret.
