Another try. I hope this comes up properly.
Just realised I can edit original text. (Bear with me, I'll get it eventually).
EOS 30D
Sigma 500
f4.5 @ 1/90, 800asa
Taken at Formby. Squirrel numbers seem to be dropping alarmingly.

A cracking shot Robert and welcome to UKNP! Including your setup (gear, exposure etc., will help give useful critique)

Great image the larger size reveals bags of detail with a good pose, pity about the lost tail, but, I guess one can't have it all...
