Saw this at the zoo - my son with his hakw eyes spotted this at the top of a tree.

I thought it was a nice unusual angle.

Wonderful capture, sure looks like you have taken full control of the new camera. Well done.

When he wakes up a 2am screaming that a spider has attacked him you wouldn't want him! ;)

That is his job - he has eyes like a hawk. He got himself a little book and writes down all he spots each day! He does keep spelling things like busard and kesteril though! :)

Thanks for all the kind comments - the feet amaze me!
