Seen on the west coast earlier this week, usually they're so quick you don't get a chance to appreciate the delicacy of their markings.

I've got one of those, he comes to visit every day. :) I didn't know what it was until I looked it up the other day. Short of sellotaping the binoculars to my camera I'm never going to get a decent pic of him. He's always a little bit too far away.
