14 This is YOUR Fault!

Groton, Massachusetts

Last night's 2 inches on top of a foot from the previous storm meant that this squirrel had to go digging through the snow to get to some seeds that I had scattered on my deck during the last storm.

Given the aftermath of the storm Mother Nature blessed the area with I figured you would have some prime opportunities for this type of shot and it certainly is a excellent capture. The Boy Scout Motto is “Be Prepared”, you want to have a topic in your back pocket for CIC213 just in case. Paul

Hmm. You got 2 comments; mine was lost.

Anyway - I like the title for this. He is certainly not a happy camper with all the snow and some buried seeds.
Nice capture.

I've had very good luck shooting through glass onto my deck and beyond. My Snowing picture was also shot through glass. There are no sources of light behind me to be reflected and the outside is brighter than the inside so there's very little problem.

I can relax on my living room sofa with my camera beside me and take advantage of any opportunities that may arise.

So shot through glass? Makes the result even more impressive.

I was about 8 feet away, but there was a door in between the squirrel and me.

Great shot, and I like the title. How close did it let you get?
