I don't know who got the biggest shock!

I went out this morning to a favourite haunt of mine, looking for Red Squirrels or Raptors ( Blip does that to you) and taking a short cut through a thicket, I came out to see this chap standing about 5 metres from me. We just stared at each other, then I thought Photo and hoped he wouldn't get scared off with the sudden movement for my camera. So, slowly, slowly I arranged the camera and got this lovely pose. He then turned and slowly ambled away into the nearby forest. That made a great morning even better. Definitely The Monarch of The Glen!
