Wildlife photographer Carl Bovis has an incredible talent for capturing stunning images of birds. But while he was wandering with his camera near his Bridgwater, Somerset home, he had a rather strange sighting on the road.
"Being unable to investigate what it was due to it being on private land and the setting sun being in his eyes, the 53-year-old says he spent a couple of minutes watching it to see if it would move before taking a single photo of it and heading home," reports BristoLive.
Unable to identify the hairy mystery beast, Bovis posted it to X. See below.
"At the time I thought I was photographing some kind of animal….The question I'm struggling with though, and I've asked all my family…. but what is it actually??"
Turns out that they "mystery animal" was a runaway wig. No word on whose head it escaped from.
Don't laugh….
At the time I thought I was photographing some kind of animal….🙄😅🤣🤣🤣
