Squirrel in Pyracantha Bush
Nov 21, 2013 12:59:04 #
I planted a tiny Pyracantha bush when I moved here eleven years ago. Now it almost surrounds the front porch and provides a pleasant view from the sofa where I normally spend much of my day writing. My wife had seen squirrels in the bush--it's more of a tree, but still considered a bush--but this visitor was the first one I'd seen. I clamped on my 300mm lens and stood probably no more than six feet away, but (s)he seemed totally unaware of my presence.

Thanks, but the camera gets most of the credit. *G* BTW, I'm SO glad I moved these to my laptop before posting here. While I was busy with some other pictures, I didn't notice that my miniature dachshund, Happy, was busy pulling the 8-gig card out of the adapter and chewing on it--irretrievably, it turns out. Fortunately, the losses were minimal. *S*
