Why the Big Grin?
Lens: Bigma 50-500 Camera: K5 ISO: 3200 Shutter Speed: 1/125s Aperture: F6.7 
Posted By: Rupert, 05-10-2011, 09:13 AM

After two days of my Squirrels being on strike, and forcing me into a lockout from taking Squirrel photos, we have reached an agreement.

I spent all night with Otis in negotiations and after two bottles of fine Paris (Texas) Cognac, we finally concluded a deal. I already regret that I gave in, but I was tired and don't think I could drink one more jigger of that rotgut booze, although Otis was continually calling for another shot.

The Deal: When Squirrels get so fat they can barely climb, because I have fed them so well, I have agreed to send them to a famous Luxurious Squirrel Spa for rehab and relaxation, all expenses paid, including the Gourmet Meal Plan. I feel pretty low this morning...defeated by a tiny Squirrel, but it was either that or no more Squirrel shots. What would you have done? Make Squirrel Stew?

Best Regards!

Wipe off that grin Otis!

Things are looking up for this little fat Girly Squirrel!

I think she is about ready for her first Spa visit?
( My apologies for the nudity, it was also in that new contract.....Squirrels are to be posted totally naked from now on).....I could be banned at any time.

You sound like the CFO at the "old" General Motors, Rupert. Seriously, cool shots - you've got this squirrel gig down, man.

No Charlie, I don't think there are any in Texas. I have seen a lot of photos of them, mostly from Canada and would love to see one in real life. Have you ever read about the white Squirrels of N Carolina? Very interesting.........

My Squirrels all look about the same....excepting Otis, who is exceedingly handsome!

That's a fine looking Squirrel!
Otis says to send her on down....he has some "special ways" to fatten her up! ...........I think we have seen a few he has "fattened up"!

Must be the corn that did it....right? That's what Otis says....
