Day 166 - Curious

South Berwick, ME

(897/365)
I came home to a squeaky sound and it wasn't a mattress. The kid's 'Rat' [Hamster] was going to town in its wheel and was making a hell of a noise. I decided to try to capture it in the wheel, as soon as I got the camera gear to the cage, it stopped playing on the wheel. I decided to perform a little wheel maintenance and put some vegetable oil on the axle to stop the squeak. The squeak stopped and the Hamster returned. I showed my daughter why you use vegetable oil on the wheel, the hamster immediately started licking the oil, this photo was just before she went back for more. Manual focus @ f/2.8, not bad if I say so myself.
