Raiding the bird feeders I captured this cutie with the the canon 40D with the canon 70-300 IS USM lens, shot through a clean window with the screen up.

Whenever I do this type of shot I just make sure I clean the window, then sit and wait. :) This window has to be the cleanest one in my house. Lol!

You can't tell at all that this was shot through glass. Love the lighting and detail, Sandi. Cute little bugger.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

So the secret to getting good wildlife shots is too carry around a window with you. I guess it makes sense they are called picture windows after all. Good clarity and details in the photo and nice lighting in the scene.

The lighting and your clarity pick up every little hair... They're such scamps, always in the bird feeder, but I think they're cute, especially the little red squirrels like this one.

What a furry fellow. Almost seems like you can reach out and cuddle him. That would be a bad Idea. He must be posing for an audition to a Walt Disney movie. Nice.
