Didn't neglect the squirrels at the weekend

Having posted a night time lighthouse shot and a seaside sunrise shot from the weekend I didn't want the squirrels to feel left out. So Sunday morning, with soaking feet after sea water got inside my wellies, I found myself lying on sharp gravel/chippings trying to get low level shots of the squirrels. Didn't get exactly what I was looking for, and will have to try again, but here's a few shots with the K5 and Sigma 150-500.

In the final shot you can see the uncomfortable ground I was lying on.

If you look at the ears, you'll see there are two squirrels here.

Some more cool shots of these really endearing creatures I especially like the second one - it looks as if he is looking at you saying "is this pose alright?"... In my head at least
