None of the photographers were hurt during these deadly encounters :)
If you walk around the Derwent Dams, up by Slippery Stones where the old Packhorse Bridge has been re-assembled, you may find yourself hassled by this fella... hungry for your sandwich and persistent. :)

Inquisitive Horse
Highland Cattle
I was on a small local walk around the fields above Tansley when I was followed and pestered by this horse. I think it was bored. It did make a good picture though.
These used to be seen in Scotland - now they are being kept more and more by us "lowlanders". These are in the fields above Matlock Moor. The pine woods can be seen in the background.
All pictures here were taken with my Digital Camera!
Territorial Grouse
Grouse normally scare the hell out of walkers with their explosive exit from the heather in front of you with a cah cah cah!.. This one on Derwent Edge was determined to prevent us passing.
Lizard
Stoat
Saw this one walking into the White Peak - near Hartington. It ran along the wall. I whistled and it stopped briefly. Took it on my old digital camera so only have 1280x960 shots and no 10x zoom :(
Lizards are common on the moors around the Dark Peak. They are very skittish and I only caught this one because I was swift. Care not to get its tail (which it will detach!) we managed to get a few pictures.
