    It's definately pine marten. A big 1 at that. I see them the whole time killed on the read between birr and roscrea.

    A pine marten it is and a hefty one as well. They're feisty little feckers as well. Had to release one from a mink trap once as he was an accidental catch. Let's say it was challenging to get him out without leaving a pinky or so behind..

    Nah, that's a Wolverine:D

    Seriously though its one well fed pine martin, must be good eating near Birr. Wouldn't like to meet it on a dark night.
