can you pleeeeease let me know how you are able to capture these wee things on 'film'?

Do you have them around your house? Where you work... ?

The only place I have seen these is in the bush and they are sooo darn skittish..

The focal length you'll need if you actively try to chase them down:

FZ200 + 1.7x TC, ~950mm EFL

The focal length you need if you sit down somewhere and wait for them to stop by (briefly as it may be):

TZ70, 400mm EFL

Of course you can always get lucky too.
