One of my favorite "lucky" captures.

While shooting some pictures of birds on a bird feeder which was on an elevated post with an old cast iron pot hanging from a bracket about halfway down the post a squirrel happened to clamber up the post and then dove into the old pot... when he resurfaced I caught him with the camera just before he exited the pot.... one of those lucky shots...
I did some pp work to seclude him and part of the pot from the surroundings.
Please use DL to see his whiskers.

Yep, this is certainly a great shot and just goes to show that luck can be a blessing. Love the PP too.

Love the shot. You were ready, so there probably wasn't too much luck. Good show. djt
