By now the Falmer Pond rats need no introduction, so another small selection from today….
Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D EF and 400mm f/5.6L USM lens.

17 Sep 2011Robin, they are indeed surprisingly cute when they behave like that. I think there's a big difference to seeing them in what is a fairly natural setting and seeing them in harsh urban landscapes. They make great subjects to photograph because they are so active.

19 Sep 2011Erwin, there are plenty of raptors about. I assume the foxes will get some, and if there are any owls they will certainly have a feast. Sparrowhawks only very rarely take them.
