There's a family of squirrels passing through our garden regularly. Frantically ferrying and burying walnuts from a nearby tree. There's mum and dad plus what looks like an 'adolescent' youngster. The youngster isn't contributing to the store cupboard but watches the parents; learning I hope. Photos: a Pentax 55-300mm zoom set at 300mm, hand-held at shutter speeds in the region of 1/200 to 1/800s with in-body shake reduction. ISO 800 setting. Aperture at, or close to, wide open. Shot through not particularly clean double glazing. So for a set of grab shots, I was happy. Processing? Adobe Camera Raw's 'auto' exposure adjustment followed by Alien Skin's Fuji Provia 400F plugin. I may have added a little sharpening to one of the images (can't remember) before resizing to 1080 pixels high and saving as JPG. Attachments:

Sorry to your squirrels are a problem. Yes, they bury in oyr very new lawn too. But cuteness outweighs the pain in our view!
BTW, no idea how photos bceame duplicated when I did the attachments. And editing doesn't allow me to delete the duplicate.

And there's me squinting at them for an hour to see if I get 3D!!! I had a look and can't see why they duplicate either. You've done them as a thumbnail, whereas I normally post the img long to the photo. But I can't see why there are two!!! A bug .......
