Thread: Success depends on how you look at it.

I had a similar run in last week - stalked down to where I'd seen an animal moving across some open ground, but nothing there by the time I arrived. But while I was changing my clothing layers for the walk back up the hill I caught a flash of movement through a bush about ten feet away. I thought, just like you, nah, a bird, but I walked slowly round the bush and there was a spiker staring straight at me, ten metres away at the most! I froze and we both eyeballed each other for a few seconds and just like you I was thinking as soon as I move he's going to bolt - then he did, before I even moved. But man it was so exciting and yeah I sort of felt happy for him that he got away. But next time our paths cross it will be different, my friend... mwah ha ha...
