Thank heavens there're still some red squirrels in Northumberland Alan. If Beginner gets his way all the greys will be shot. This is a lovely set

Just great! I'm sure it's to do with the squirrel and not the photography, but don't his back feet look as if they should not belong to him. Or is it just me?

Thanks for comments guys. Stub, these were taken with the Sigma 150-500 at focal lengths between 400 and 500. I did also shoot a lot at less than 300mm, and there were some I missed as they were too close for the lens to focus, if I had a spare body, I'd take my 16-45, or 28-80 too next time.

Barrie, #5 was included in this set specifically for the feet. The left one looks enormous
