Just because there's way too much great photography on this site...!
You know the feeling. You only got one or a few photos of it and they're not very good, but you can't bear to throw the photos away because they're all you have of that particular species. So you keep them, just until you get better ones :) We've managed to 'upgrade' some of the species below since these bad pics were taken, but not all...
Please join in! I can't be the only one who hordes terrible wildlife photos :)
Collared Flycatcher
Otter
Peregrine
and best (worst) of all, Nightjar!

Thank you for that .....but the pics there are so so good. Must admit all I really wanted to do was to kneel down and give him a big protective cuddle - how dare his mum leave him alone :) BUT I do know better ....still was a tug though.:)
What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare ........

Here are a few more howlers from me :)
This is a squirrel - blurriness courtesy of my dog pulling on his lead!
Woodland walk - more dog-induced blurriness!!
And this, a newly discovered creature - a hybrid deer/hay bale - I was dead chuffed to see one of these in the wild!! It's joined by two of its regular non-hybrid cousins.
LOL Anna - I have the same problem with my dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I drop the lead and stand on the end, but she then pulls me over and the pics are hilarious!
Hahaha oh yes, I've tried the "foot-on-lead" approach, and failed - painfully!! Sometimes I'll grasp the lead between my knees to free up my hands, but then I just look weird!!
