As promised, some squirrel shots.
This guy came right up to my wife while she was feeding our chickens and ducks. He jumped right into the feed bucket, then threatened my wife (missed those shots looking for my damn cell phone) then proceeded to find and eat what he could. Came quite close to me-12 to 15 feet!
The next to last shot shows the squirrel looking to another feed container next to the water jug!
The last shot shows our hungry squirrel munching on whatever it is he found.
D500, 500pF and D850,300pF. Yes polarizers used on both cameras.
Download is a Must!
Enjoy!

Fun set, Tim! He does look ashamed in #5.
Doubtful, if he's like his relatives in Maine he's really plotting unauthorized access to the sunflower seed storage vat! Sort of a squirrel version of "The Thinker" by Rodin.

Thanx for viewing! Interesting pose! I thought he might be feeling some remorse over the attack on my wife, but no he must have been rethinking his food-thieving tactics!
