Pine Martins in the Rain

[Graeme F]

Went to the woods today and no bears (this is Ireland) but did capture a Pine Martin! Raining and dark so exposure not the best...

Cute little critters. I imagine with sharp claws and teeth however.

Great captures.

Looks great to me Graeme! I like all 3, that's a creature I don't think I have seen on this side of the pond. I was shooting some ducks the other day as it was getting darker and mine suffer in detail a lot, I wish my detail had been as good as this.

Great catch not a common critter around here

 

[Graeme F]

Thanks everyone. Yep unusual here in Ireland too. Has the look of a youngster to me.

 

[Ken Rennie]

We have them here as well Graeme but I have never seen them as anything other than a fast moving blur. Nice images. My Nature photographer friends prize pine martin images highly which usually means they are tricky to photograph. Ken

Sweet imaging! Correction: because the weather was raining and dark, the exposures are better!

 

[Trent Watts]

Wow what a fantastic shot. How lucky to see this wild animal. I've never seen one. Well seen and captured.

 

[Jeffrey]

Those cute little things are vicious predators. Just be glad you're not a rabbit anywhere them.
