Bird Feeder Thief

[Jim_T]

These guys drop by from time to time and raid my bird feeders. I don't really mind.. They're fun to watch and seed is cheap :)

This is a nice shot. Kinda hard to tell if he is stretching over or jumping as you froze the action.
Nonetheless I enjoy it, looks like he is sticking his tongue out.

Nice catch Jim, In FACT, a good title for this could be; "Caught in the Act". ;)
I like how close in you got to this little critter. :D

Thanks..

(Yes "caught in the act would have been better :) )

He was stretching from another branch.. I took it through a window. They can see me, but they're smart enough to know I can't reach them through the glass so they ignore me. Even if I bang on the window :)

Nice capture of the dreaded red squirrel. Smaller but faster, smarter and tougher than their grey cousins.
