~ What a shock ~
We were on a walk by a mountain near our place , it was a calmly cold evening , we were quiet as normal when in nature, enjoying the views and walking slowly over the hillside following the narrow paths made by wild animals and sometimes people looking for wild mushrooms and green asparagus. I was a bit ahead of my ex-wife and reached a firebreak path.
All was normal but suddenly a mufled crackle sound over the bush around me took my attention , that sound got louder and louder as it was closing to me , (I was getting a bit scared , must admit) it rushed out the bush through the firebrake path and crashed on the bush ahead , like if he was running away from a thread . As he recovered from the crash he headed down to me , I was shocked and barely had time to pick up the camera and shoot . Great! my heart 200 km/h and my body trembling like a child.
Later I thought about what happended and concluded he was more scared than me . He finally, very close to me, found a path through the bush and left as fast as he appeared. He was a wild boar.
Here my entry for the Monday #animalphotography contest roled by @photocontests. Many thanks to @juliank. Sorry for the quality but it shows the rush and shock of the moment. You will need to zoom-in to see the animal.
After that we spent the whole evening talking about the incident and a bit on alert when nature sounds came to us. It was an amazing walk.
The place is known as "Las Merchanas"(Spain) a little mountain not far from my city. A Pdf document in spanish talking about it's prehistoric relevance, here

Wow, that could be too dangerous. Meeting with the boar. Pleased, that all ended well. Thanks for the photos. The boar is too close.
He was scared, runnig madly as if he was running away from a danger. To be honest I saw no danger but us(who were actually no danger at all). I got really surprised and jumped when it first came out the bush, but my experience with animals told me there was no thread he was on his way to somewhere and I was not about to stop him for sure.
Thank you so much for coming to my post madlen
Cheers ;)
