I have been watching this spot for a little while since they used a disc on the road, and have been waiting for the right time to photograph it.
I stopped, got the tripod and 180 out, got set up, and was looking thru the viewfinder. Just as I was about to trip the shutter, the razor-back boar walked right into the frame. They are a big nuisance in this area because they destroy crops and make the ground too rough for a horse to safely walk over when they root it up.
I have no big expectations with this shot about score. It has been rainy every afternoon here and I have not been shooting big scenic shots this week.

Is that a hog in the road? I find myself looking at it more than the road.
