Just fabulous, wonderful, it is posing for you.
Love the DOF.
This are just beautiful creatures.
Mary MacADNski: I've been busy with extra work again and haven't been filling the bird feeders as fast as usual. The squirrels are annoyed. The weather has been so warm with no snow, so I don't feed them at this time. They can take care of themselves yet.

A nicely posed youngster
Mary MacADNski: I have a ton of them - pesky little critters!

Awwww. What a sweetie-pie, Mary. It's precious, posing for you and waiting so patiently.
Mary MacADNski: It is doing exactly that. It later tried to chew metal wire, destroyed the top off a plastic feeder and is relentless and rude. He's being a brat.

You caught a great pose. Love the DOF. I can imagine it darting off again..
Mary MacADNski: It is waiting patiently - for birdseed.

I love this shot, I did some myself, they are cute as hell
Mary MacADNski: They're cute but sure eat a lot. There are dozens of them.
cute image, like the wooden perch it looks pre historic. I hope these critters are less destructive than the grey squirrels (tree rats) we have here, they devastate some of the woodland I help manage.
Mary MacADNski: That is a piece of wood on my deck. It does look like a prehistoric bird. I've had it for years. Squirrels are destructive and my arch enemies. It seems you and I are on the same wavelength.
Lovely capture
Mary MacADNski: Thanks so much.
Oh Mary, this is just such a delightful image! (:o)
Mary MacADNski: One of many on my deck.
Damn nuisance aren't they? I keep having to drive them off the bird feeders! Lovely shot, though!
Mary MacADNski: That is exactly their problem. They think you're feeding them, not the birtds. They actually chase the birds away.
Love it. Love it. Love it
Mary MacADNski: Thanks x 3.

Brilliantly observed Mike. This image is a classic and you should treat it as such. If I bothered with likeys I would likey this.
Mary MacADNski: I'm a merry, Mary, Mike, Doveton. It is one of many on my deck. The pesky critters are voracious!
This is absolutely adorable, Mary. It almost looks as if he is riding on another animal's head, with his paw in its' eye. Fantastic colour & tone.
Mary MacADNski: It is a piece of driftwood on my deck. I've had it for years.

Dude!
Who knicked my acorns?
Mary MacADNski: Where are my black oil sunflower seeds? I have 6 new youngsters and a few thousand grandchildren.
Lovely capture Mary, such a cheeky look.
Mary MacADNski: Cheeky would be one word!
You do some good images Mary but this must rate as one of the very best of yours I seen so far.
Mary MacADNski: Really, Brian? This is just on my deck this week, the usual suspects begging for birdseed.
Cute!
Mary MacADNski: I've been busy with extra work again and haven't been filling the bird feeders as fast as usual. The squirrels are annoyed. The weather has been so warm with no snow, so I don't feed them at this time. They can take care of themselves yet.
wonderful shot, looks like its got hold of a skeleton of another animal there
Mary MacADNski: It is a piece of driftwood I've had forever - looks like a prehistoric bird.
Nice shot!
Mary MacADNski: Thanks so much.

Very surprising contrast !
Mary MacADNski: Thanks for coming by, Philippe.
