have a lovely week.
nice and where was this? some logging trail at Raub? a handsome creature.
I found a pair of these play-fighting down the Damar Minyak trail. It was the most amazing sighting! Thanks for refreshing my memmory.
Wow, what a special sighting. Beautiful animal, I love the colouring.
Photographer & subject: Doc Marten! Sorry Doc just joking. Beautiful animal.
Wow, he has long legs. Our weasels have much shorter legs. I love the color patterns.
