Squirrel "macro"
Lens: F*300 Camera: K3 Photo Location: CT ISO: 800 Shutter Speed: 1/320s Aperture: F4.5

I've no Idea if this qualifies as " Macro" but it was as macro as I could get with my F*300. I was sitting in a chair near the bird feeder snapping away and this one decided I was no threat and just went about his business. It literally was at my feet at some points..

This "macro" is actually a tad just over where he should be for the F*300 but I liked the framing. No cropping here.

Some squirrels become as brave as some birds over time - especially because birds are sloppy eaters. This is a good picture of this guy looking for some of the food birds have dropped.

I thought he was participating in a pine cone rolling contest.
