Excellent shot, not seen any sort of stag beetle in 20 years or more, hopefully you returned it to where you found it

Thanks, All.
Nothing at all, Steve.
It's one of those , so laid back, if you put it in position it just stays there,,,,,
Weird, but a pleasant change!
Roger.
The more I look, the more there is to see!
