Its a strong look I know. But a Poncho with belt may make it more functional , but yes I agree, the idea of a Poncho tends to be better than the feel of a Poncho. < Bit like greasy Fish'n'Chips >

I agree that the tins are definitely becoming thinner and more minimal - not surprising really when you think about it - I wonder if its possible to even imagine the amount of metal in worldwide circulation that is essentially a disposable ( albeit recyclable in most countries ) container.

I could see merit in a very thin , non plastic windproof / water treated poncho that could pack down small - if one stops to view animals or have a brew break could be used to just cover over.

Maybe for the shorter individuals? Not sure if it could be treated to be water resistant.? But as something to throw intop of a day sack to put on when stopping to create a thermal envelope? maybe some merit. I was looking for something poncho like but didn't feel or sound like disused...

You get tourists in North Devon???? :)

I'll keep one eye shut and use the glass eye.

Squinty eyes are not an approved method then?? Damn!!!

This image was the sort of thing I meant.

@Broch Did you end up investing in the Helarctos unit?? If so how has it performed?

I t'was up quite early this morning - got into position looking upstream at the dam on a conveniently placed foot bridge - zero'd in on looking for movement in the early hours. Unfortunately... the enemy Beaver were already to my rear downstream and managed to glide underneath me from behind -...

Looking for a suggestion for a Trail cam that is at the more budget end of the spectrum - but will send notifications to my phone/laptop. I maybe asking for too much but its surprising how inexpensive tech can be made these days. Basically I don't want some that could be potentially stolen...

Sisu Just enjoy the OTT badassery

Nice. Thanks for the breakdown- very useful!

Holts been in quite a lot to be honest - mostly not as the main lead - Alien3 , The Losers , and more recently the rather brilliant Mindhunters - the docuseries covering the start of the FBI behavioural science team before serial killer was a much used term - also worth checking out.

Yep-top film. Good all round cast with all playing a part and realistic role that it doesn't feel like a written vehicle for any of them. I also felt both Jeffrey Donovan; " Bottles " and Holt McCallany " The Beast " added to it greatly. Its possible I guess you've also not seen :- Hell Or...

I was going to type in ' Apart from Humans'... :) I can't think of anything that does it in the same manner ??? Maybe insects or some fishy/crustacean type thingymyjig does a semi close approximation. But Beavers are full on intentional engineering.

I was trying to think if there is any other animal that intentionally and actively changes its environment in a lasting manner to its own purpose?

No photos - but sat down near the River and watched Three Beavers doing what ever they were doing.
