Happy Squirrel

My Garden

This cheeky little red squirrel managed to unscrew the filler cap on my
birdfeeder last week. I have still not been able to find where he threw
the cap to, and on a number of occasions we have caught him sitting inside
the feeder, filling his face with seed.
I crept round the side of the house with the camera and caught him, looking
very happy after he had just climbed out of the birdfeeder with his tummy full!

LOL, Tricia. Crystal clear shot of this little guy. Have to say, he is a cutie, and obviously quite smart too! V

I hate to say it, but I love your squirrel, Tricia. Tack sharp, perfectly exposed, and a great background! Vote

He does look quite happy... and I bet he knows where the missing filler cap is.
Wonderful photo, perfectly executed. The reflection shows just how much leaf
cover the squirrel was under, but you cannot tell from the photo.
