L’écureuil

Sometimes the French word is just better. (I can’t pronounce it, but I still like it.) I got a new lens for Christmas — the Nikon 55-200mm VR AF-S f/4-5.6G. This allows me to spy on my favorite animal from inside the house. I will readily admit that I baited these squirrels with bread and apples in an attempt to lure them out into the open (spoiler: it worked). I’m pretty impressed with the quality of these photos since they were taken from the comfort of my kitchen, through two layers of glass and a screen. I’m looking forward to seeing what it can do outside on a warmer day! Brrrrr!

My daughter forced me to join a virtual pet adoption web site, and I needed an avatar, so I drew this “lurking squirrel” and colored it in Photoshop. Just for fun. To get to the pet site, search “Chicken Smoothie” or type ”chickensmoothie.com”.
