Pretty sure I wasn't mistaken as I've seen them close up whilst on holiday one year, coming right up to the patio doors.

But never expected to see one, albeit dead, in a spot like this.


My daily commute to work took me down that slip road for nearly 10 years and I saw 2 dead Pine Martins beside it within a week of each other roughly 2 years ago.
I live in Drumnadrochit and have seen a live Pine Martin beside the road to Kiltarlity but never in my garden :shock:
