    Wow thank you Again.
    The Kingfisher image from Week 537 was one of a series I put up on another site, which I ended deeply regretting posting.
    This caused me to go looking for new pastures, ending up been one of the most memorable days in the wild I have had in a long time.
    This stag and I spent minutes together deep in a woods, so close I could hear him breathe.
    He let me take some shots and I swear he bowed his head to me before he just majestically slid of into his woods again.
    This was one of many encounters that morning and a area i can see my self spending a lot of hours.

    @ Myksyk,
    I put this up as a set showing three birds on a site one Saturday night.
    Early the next morning I got a call from a friend commenting on the number of photographers on the river.
    I went for a walk later that day and was shocked by the amount of people with one fella driving from Northern Ireland after seeing my post.
    For the next week these birds were chased up and down the river by all and sundry trying to get shots of them.
    Whilst I post very few of my images anyway, photography has been a way to deal with my PTSD,
    I now think three times of posting anything after the behavior I witnessed that week.
