A chance encounter with one individual bird, reeling late one evening led to one of those 'once in a lifetime' events. I was suddenly face to face with a Gropper - showing through a clear hole in the dense foliage!

It lasted 4 or 5 seconds and about 8 images, most of which were blurred! I think these two will more than do for keepers :-) .....

Told you it was short and sweet......
