Very interesting indeed - all three good shots - like the colour in the 1st one. Cheers, Bernz

It is a very interesting place, one of my favourites, nice and remote, always plenty to photograph from the predators and buck to the new wild flowers this time of the year.

I was lucky with the clouds on the first shot, the next day it rained for 5 hours the road out was fun after that.

Thanks for the comments much appreciated.

Also saw this little fellow just off the road, very well camouflaged when he was in the grass.
