Mark,
Thanks.

I can't get that separation with M&S. The MKH-416's are at 45 deg, one
over the other to make the capsules equidistant for front sounds
optimised for a centre image. It's not perfect as I have different
sized Rycotes. One day I'll make a combined mount and windgag.
The background noise is a steep stream which runs down round half of
the wood. It echoes off the trees and is difficult to lose, but I use
an old trick from my filming days which is to lay the mics directly on
soft ground. With TV filming I've had mics in shot on many scenes. :-)
The mic pair is also behind the big oak which baffles the nearby parts
of the stream.
