Entering from a dark woodland into a bright clearing, breathtaking scenery meets the eye.
A frilly water-filled shimmering lake. A wide expanse to stretch your gaze, with a backdrop of hills fading in a mist slowly away.
Reeds and bulrushes bend and sway in the gentle wind. Yet, in amongst this beauty, death awaits the unwary.
A stoat bides its time, to snatch in a moment a fish listlessly sleeping off its mealtime.
The stoat carries home its trophy to its family awaiting and once fully content, they too curl up to sleep, but not to snore.
