Scolding me

for disturbing it while it was eating.
My get-pushed partner challenged me to photograph any animal (real or inanimate). Not too many animals around our yard except super quick squirrels and birds. I usually don't have the patience to sit quietly to take a photograph. Spotted from inside, this squirrel looked and moved around when I came outside to take its photo. Then it ran off.

@salza Hi Sally. Just happened to be able to catch a squirrel in our yard this evening. I may do more animal photos, but just in case... Thank you for your challenge.

well caught.

You've caught him right in the act, by the looks of things!

[Sally Ings]

Great timing! Love his expression.

@salza Thank you Sally.

LOL, you are getting to close to his hideout

[FBailey]

Oh cute, and definitely not an easy subject!

@digitalrn A major food source, actually. My husband spilled a bag of seed in the yard and it was pigging out.
@fbailey Thanks Felicity. If it hadn't been lured by food, it probably wouldn't have stayed as long as it did.

@cocobella Thanks Corinne.
