Caught a great wildlife moment cycling home from work last Friday.
A stoat was taking out a big rat…the screeching from the rat caught my attention and I managed to get one rushed shot:
Stoat attacking Rat
I then lay by a wall waiting for the stoat to return and finish it as the rat was still breathing but could hardly move and, sure enough, he did pop out to inspect my bike, dance around and disappear again once he spotted me. Unfortunately at that moment I had my camera set up facing the rat!
