Thanks Jean it was fate the porc-epic was on the road in full view , I stopped, got out of the car and he ran for the bushes - was lucky to get that shot.

Excellent crisp, clear shots well lit and vivid colour. TFS

Gorgeous, I need to make it up there again soon. A great place to be a photographer. Low hanging fruit everywhere!

Thanks GeoJerry - that is an accurate description , even from the highway you could stop every 100 meters/yards and shoot beauty.

Really like the second shot Dave. That is about as close to a porcupine pic that most of us would get.

Thanks Susan - he was in the middle of the road - and me with the camera in the back seat - very cautious soon as I stopped he scattered off should have snapped a few through the window.
