Red Squirrel
This Squirrel is visiting the same tree every day. Yesterday I sat for the first time and waited for about two hours. I didn't hear him comming so it was a kind of suprise when I looked through the viewfinder :eek:

Lovely shot Edwin - nice and contextual, perfect sharpness and great detail :toast:

Nice to see some tree foliage framing the subject too - makes a nice change - an image to be proud of I'd say :wavey:

Excellent image!

Couldn't agree more Rene :confused:
Beautifully framed - great picture.

Great shot of an animal I was attempting (and failing) to get some decent shots of yesterday. Having the squirrel framed by the foliage is very effective. Beautiful picture.
