      Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
      By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
      While better men than we go out and start their working lives
      At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

      • Was out photographing a steam engine when this wandered down the tracks, doubt it is a pure Scottish Wild Cat, face looks wrong shape, but the markings and huge size showed it was most likely a hybrid feral/wildcat.

                  I think they're Firebugs (Pyrrhocoris apterus )
