A cheeky pine marten surprised a wildlife lover - by peeking in through a window at a rural retreat.
Neil Bletcher was staying at his holiday home in Ardnamurchan, Scottish Highlands when the tiny woodland creature, which he named 'Spotty Cheek', made a surprise appearance.
Spotty Cheek is one of three kits born in spring last year, and Neil has built up a rapport with the tiny critter.
