Thanks Richard,
I am always interested in 'additional shots'. The first observation of an animal 'doing something' is always of great interest - and the original observer deserves praise, but the third, fourth ... and subsequent observations are also very important because they show that this behaviour is part of the animal's way of life and not just a strange aberration.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
