Yes, but who would know (if I hadn't said?!)

Mr Mole's Final Epitaph
Sadly he (or she) passed away last night which probably explains the unusual behaviour.
The classic pose recreated for posterity. A picture I've wanted to take for many years but tricky with a normally lively subject.

As it came up in this thread,

I'd just like to say Thanks to Sigma for fitting a new mount onto my 150 - 500 today, noticing and correcting a slight fault and giving the lens a firmware update all while I waited.
Thanks for letting us know. Didn't think they'd do it while you waited. How long did it take them? I'd need to factor a wait time into a very long drive to get mine done!

Does the new mount seem OK?

It took the best part of 60 before I got that one! Most have his head hidden. Its still out on the lawn and had a cat watching it somewhat bemused. Tried to get a picture of both but the cat ran off. If I hadn't gone out to cut the lawn this afternoon I'd never have known.

Wonder if it is a he or a she. I thinks it's a male.

Mole Eating Worm

That's a mole eating a worm, not a worm that's mole eating!
Not something one sees very often, indeed I've never witnessed this before. I thought moles lived underground.

He was quite happy to let me follow him round and get close for photos (took 72, mostly useless!) His head seemed permanently buried in the ground.

PS We've no mole hills (yet!)

Out of interest what on earth is ICM?
Google suggests:
International Confederation of Midwives;
Institute of Commercial Management;
Integrated Cleaning Management (amongst others)
but I suspect the reference here is none of those!

Any way you can visit a dealer and compare them first hand?
