Hi Hamish Mackie - what is your perspective on non-raised crossings with alternative vehicle speed reduction devices?

'Night Watcher', direct plaster.

He is considered to be one of the world's foremost wildlife sculptors.^[1] Largely self-taught, Mackie captures his subjects - ranging from livestock to birds via wild animals - by observation in a natural environment, taking detailed photographs and sometimes modelling in plasticine.

From this he creates a highly accurate anatomical core covered with a loose, almost impressionistic skin that captures the essence of the animal's personality. He has won numerous commissions including works for Jilly Cooper, Charles Saatchi, Ronnie Wood (private) and RSPCA, National Trust, Woburn Abbey, Merrill Lynch, Hiscox and most recently the Berkeley Group Holdings (public).^[2] He has travelled to places including Antarctica, the Falkland Islands, Australia, across
