Haha okay, so you don't own the copyright then if you did not take it? ;-) Just joking, that was very clever Mark! And what a great photo! I can imagine how excited you were when you looked at how the photos came out!

I'm not sure what spooked the raccoon this time, Adrian. On several occasions, I aimed the camera at a knot hole of a hollow tree to see what animal comes in or out of it, and each time I got 36 shots of a raccoon sticking its paw into the hole. Obviously neither the flash nor the noise bothered him. The noise of the MD-12 motor drive is pretty loud and it does startle the birds, which do not mind the flash. My photo of the red squirrel was taken remotely using a long wire while I watched from about 3o feet away. Again, this was a single shot. I would say that it was the flash and noise combination that scares them off, birds and mammals. They are not bothered by just the flash but with just the noise, they look around for movement and resume their activities when they don't see any. When I took the photo of the cedar waxwings, they got used to the noise and the flash, but not to the camera just 5 feet away. The parents attacked the camera as they flew from the nest.

Mark, I'm impressed with your thoroughness in setting up the shot. You are obviously a technical wizard! Anyway, you got some reward for it.
I read somewhere, years ago, in the context of photographing birds, that flash doesn't disturb them, as they have no understanding of what it is. I wonder if it was the noise of the shutter that spooked your racoon, and prevented his return?

I'm sorry, Adrian, I neglected to add the info on how the picture was taken. I just added it now. I placed my camera at ground level about 3 feet from where I would expect the raccoon to interrupt a laser beam. He took his own picture when he did it.

Good shot! What animal is this, please? And, how did you get so close. One expects wildlife photographers to be using 500mm lenses, rather than 50mm!
