JohnC79 - how to make a bean bag.

1/ cut down a pair of old combat trousers to make a pair of short to wear when the weathers warm.

2/ Take cut off legs. Sew up one end. Fit a zip to the other.

3/ Fill with rice, gravel but, not sand. This has a habit of getting out and into your camera and kit.

4/ Put on said shorts. Pick up (filled) beanbag. Pick up camera.

5/ Go Herp Hunting.

Hi Jerry

Cracking photo. The beastie does seem to be carrying yet another sheep tick(Ixodes) behind its right eye. Was this a fairly young animal ??.

We never seem to get these on Derbyshire/Yorkshire animals, but do obviously occur in quantity on the Dorset/Wealden heaths.

Took my kids to the New Forest reptile centre today and did a test of my sigma 150 macro lens...
