Squirrel on a Branch, Looking at Me


This squirrel was sitting in a nearby tree, staring at me, after I had chased it away from the seeds that I leave out on my deck for the birds. I'm pretty sure that the squirrel was waiting, biding its time, wondering when it would be safe again to venture back to my deck, to grab a clawful of bird seed and continue shelling them without further intrusion. Looking at this picture, you might get the impression that we are in a stare-down; who is going to blink first? Who is going to be the first to back down? The question is: Who do you think will win?

(This photo was composed from 3 exposures, 3 steps apart.)
