A stoat in mid-air as it bounced down a road on Mull, towards where I was parked. It seemed to enjoy jumping around before vanishing into the grasses nearby.

   Gravity-Defying Stoat.

   There aren't many of these mustelids on Mull, so I was surprised and amused to see one out in the open, bouncing down the road towards me one day.

   It seemed pre-occupied with a piece of bark that had fallen from one of the forestry trucks, and was playing with it for a while, before leaping around manically, and then vanishing into the undergrowth.
