Description
It was cold and windy this morning when I saw this fella feeding.
I just grabbed my coat and cam, stepped out the door, and crept up
behind a bush. I'm surprised I got any clear shots at all with the
telephoto lens, and I was shivering from the cold. I need to set up
a blind of some sort, so that I can sit down and experiment with the
manual settings, and try to get a more natural setting. I don't have
many critters in my yard, just squirrels and birds. But I need to learn
more about the manual settings before I go to a zoo or park, as I really
would like to get better focus and more clarity. I never know whether
to leave my glasses on or take them off, and if I am getting good focus
with my glasses off. These sure are greedy little critters. They can
empty a feeder in three days while leaving a mess on the ground and
keeping the birds away. But at least they are something to practice on.
Thanks for your previous comments and thanks for looking...Maria

Awwwwwwww. cute but someone brought your squirrels over to the UK a couple of centuries ago and they devastated our native red squirrel population because they couldnt compete with your greys. They can only be found now on our surrounding islands and in Northern Scotland. Shame, but your little invaders are still cute!! http://red.squirrel.gallery.sytes.org/?p=MTc5NDgxODk1LzM5Mjk0MzA4QE4wMC80ZjM4YjMxYzZjLzY1L0l0J3MgTWluZSEgSXQncyBNaW5lISBJdCdzIE1pbmUhIEl0J3MgQUxMTExMIE1pbmUhMubv6g just incase you want to look
