Description
This new bird feeder had caught the eye of a Grey Squirrel. It won't like the seeds inside, but that does not stop it having a go.
This photo was taken through the kitchen window.
I used a 200mm prime lens with a 1.4x extender
Thank you for looking, as always any comments or suggestions welcome 8~)

LOVE THE CAPTURE..!!!
Cheeky little fellows, aren't they? But still great fun to watch. Very well caught. :-)
Quality has suffered via shooting via window...as that lens is razor sharp ...would have preferred focus on the Squirrel as that is the main 'subject' imo.
These little devils seem to be able to defeat any device meant to keep them away. Nice shot.
Perfect. 5+.
Funny and malicious.
There isn't much these little buggers won't try to get something they want. Awesome photo.
This is great, David, caught red handed, indeed, and I absolutely love the light dof and bits of green leaves in the background!
I see narry a bit of red on those paws! Great catch thought. : )
Yes, they do this in my yard too...dump all the seed out onto the ground, but the little birds don't seem to mind.
i stopped putting up feeders because of this very thing ,,,great capture
Big bullies that come in and push the little ones out, hmmm....deja vu, nice image David, you are getting the best out of that lens.
hehehe great shot, full of energy and life
A super capture of this little thief.
This is a wonderful shot. LOL!
Cute capture! They can be very determined. Dana P
I never knew a squirrel who wouldn't eat anything that didn't eat it first.:-) Wonderful shot.
Good shot! I think the trick is to have a longer string holding the feeder. Mine was just a bit too long for last year's squirrels but one finally managed to get there in the late fall so I'll have to extend it a bit.
I've had to invest in squirrel-proof cages for most of my feeders!
A real brilliant capture, hugs. Spider. xx
