    Lovely shot, Alan!

    How did you get it to 'pose' for you so well?

    (That photo tells us all a great deal about a GSW - the rotting trunk and the holes indicating woodworms/other insects which the bird is about to find and eat! So it's a good clear image, a great pose - and it's educational as well!)
