What a great inquisitive look they have. Fabulous. Is that with a radio remote or the normal IR one?

Very cool. Did you leave some nuts by the camera to attract them to it?

Excellent shots. I have to settle for grey squirrels round here

Thanks for the comments everyone. To answer the couple of questions. I just had a cheap chinese IR remote, and there were peanuts hidden out of shot. Had another go tonight, but it wasn't as successful.

Tried some more wide angle squirrel shots tonight by Blythman1960, on Flickr

On the plus side I took the Kx too and had the Siggy 150-500 on that. I'll post some pics tomorrow, just to show off my Kx which I hadn't used this year before today

Really excellent. Out of interest did you use a present manual focus or did you let the camera autofocus each shot?
