This past {U.S.} Labor Day weekend, my wife and I spent Saturday, Sunday, and half of Monday at The Henry Ford museum and Greenfield Village living history museum. Each of those days I encountered a local squirrel who wasn't interested in obtaining his "fifteen minutes of fame".
Day #1: above
Day #2: On Sunday, our daughters stayed for just half the day, so we shared lunch at a cafeteria on the grounds before they left. As I walked away from the cafeteria, I noticed a squirrel running around, so I went over to investigate. He allowed me to take several photos, including the first one below of him digging, but then he scampered up a large tree. By getting some distance from the tree, I got a better angle of view, and was able to see him on one of the branches. He was close enough that my DA 55-300mm WR was able to catch a good image of him - second photo below - apparently he had had enough of me, and was praying that I would go away .... so I did.
Day #3 to come
