Description

Another old image, scanned in, taken with the old praktika, 70 - 200mm lens, in Heaton Park, Manchester, UK. The squirrels here are so used to people feeding them nuts they will come and take them out of your hand. Emma was sat on the grass feeding some and they tried to get inside her coat for the bag. I took my elder brother there one time, and one climed his leg and got hold of the wrong nuts.ROFLMAO, true, it was a right laugh. I was that cracked up at this squirrel swinging I couldn't get a picture. It wasn't a point and shoot camera, I wish it had been though. I should have some new stuff tomorrow, I'm picking Alan(artaddict2) up at 09:00 hrs to go visit the local Transport Museum, in Manchester. Alan has had computer trouble over the last week, so thats why he has not been around, and signing your work. Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments you care to make. May the sun shine down on you, where ever you are.

LOL< Oh man peolpe would pay money for a photo like that. I remember being on survival camp, every morning you untied your backpack from the top of a tree (bears), opened it, and gave it a good kick to chase the half dozen or so squirrels that always managed to ninja their way inside no matter how tight you tied it down.
