Default The poser

Well, I fought the mosquitos again last night to capture these shots. For those of you up north, enjoy, cause we've had record heat here this week. This squirrel, who was in the neighbor's yard, was just begging to have his pics taken.

With the sun in his eyes---

The sun's in my eye

Heading down the tree---

Where's all the nuts

I'll just hide back here---

I'll hide back here

Ok, you got you're pics now. Can you go away and let me look for the pecans? This one looks better in the large size.---

The squirrel

Enjoy.

Very charming, your new model!

The last is my fav. Nice composition. The color is great in all shots!

So awesome. Dont know if you consider these pests or not, but we dont have squirrels here in NZ - so shots like these just make me go ahhh, how cute! LOL. I have to say the last shot would be my fav too. ..... strike a pose....
