Feeding Squirrels

Between 3 squirrels, they managed to eat 2 granola bars. But we were willing to sacrifice a snack to get a few shots ;)

Squirrels are one of the most fun creatures to photograph. Their antics provide great opportunities. I do a lot getting down at ground level (I must look like a nut). Nice shots. :thumbsup:

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

I agree with John and Chas .... Squirrels are fun subjects to photograph. They helped me learn several things ... prospective angle and how to catch the eye glint in a mammals eye.

John -- I have been told that I am "as nutty as a squirrel turd!" :P

One of my favorite squirrel images ... He was stealing little tomatoes out of a garden!

These are great ! Squirrels are a lot of fun to photograph, I haven't had many coming to the feeder lately though-maybe I'll have better luck this winter. I'm sure my neighbors think I'm nuts too....I can hear them now...."Oh, there's Shanna again, out there talking to the tree" :silly:
Cute shots, thanks for sharing! :)
