Neat. I've seen a few on our trails recently, but they are so speedy that by time I get the camera to my eye, I think they are already in the next county. The only ones I've had a good look at are those who I can sneak up on when riding the bike. I figure there must be something in the sound vibrations of the wheels that don't spook them the same way footsteps do.
