Thanks Bob, yes I was perhaps 8 feet from him. A lot of these fellows are escapees from the shooting estates here abouts, they are very tame to the point of stupidity (my Jack Russel Terrier has had her jaws round more than one). I regretted the tail as soon as I looked at the shots on the computer. I always do this, center the body of the creature or object and forget the extremities!! One day I will learn to think as I shoot ;-)
Cheers, Drew.
