Excellent portrait of a cool species - nice diagonal in the frame and active pose.

Hi

Cool shot of this heavyweight contender and lovely to see - we used to have hundreds of these during mid summer wandering around; sadly they are all gone now

All the best
Matthew

Lots of these when I was a child, but I haven't seen one for years. A fine image!
