Switching to "Smoking Hot" sunflower seeds got rid of the squirrels for a couple of months, but now they will occasionally eat them too. I still have many pellets left for my .22 cal pellet rifle, but they are very wary and don't stay long enough to shoot or photograph them.
Very nicely done. They are fun to work with. Great portrait shots on a couple. Keep having fun.

Amazing little critters, excellent shooting. Great bokeh.
Nice set. They are a lot of fun to watch.

Why are chipmunks and squirrels cute little rodents but rats are not? ( Inquiring minds want to know?)

"Tree Climbing Rats!" (Rodents) they eat into your roof and soffitt like a beaver eats through a tree.

Human perception of attractive and unattractive.
Excellent shots. And they give an example of the discussion in "How do you select the images you post?" There is (and absolutely no offense intended) nothing in the context of these shots that hasn't been done before. But, the fact is, that they are technically excellent, and therefore, noteworthy. And beside that, squirrels, like most animals, are just interesting.
