As I continued to watch the weasel, I realised that it wasn't alone. A Stonechat - Saxicola torquata, was sitting on the barbed-wire fence, fascinated by the performance of the weasel. I had read of the weasel's skill in bewitching birds by its dance and eventually catching the bird and watched in amazement. Suddenly the weasel appeared right by the fence and climbed part way up the fence-post closest to the stonechat, giving me the chance of a unique picture of weasel and stonechat together.
