12) Elusive

Clairmarais, France view map

I was lucky to see this Beech Marten, and I think the only reason our paths crossed was because it had some kind of injury to his hind legs.

This was at a nature reserve near St. Omer.

Oh lucky you. Nice details, including his claws and fur. I hope he was only lame for a while. Nature is so cruel. V

It seems to have a healthy coat and bright eye...a fortunate moment for you.

What a beautiful animal. I hope the injury didn't mean he was doomed. So lucky to see this creature. V
