Description This chipmunk sat at the end of our lower deck and cleaned himself for a while ... all while three very anxious cats watched from the other side of the sliding doors.

Shot through sliding door glass.

Vestal, New York
EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM

Have to wait for them to stop now and then! It's not usually in such an ideal position though

I like the lines of the wooden table and the pose of the chipmunk. I just find the background too bright that it distracts me from the good looking chipmunk.

I don't know what I was thinking not brightening him up more. I think it's because my external monitor is so bright. I fixed it up a bit. Brightened the chipmunk more than I darkened the grass.

Thanks for the input!

Yeah, it's not often that they stop for a while - in plain site.

Isn't he?? I hope to see more of him (and less of the squirrels who are invading my bird feeder!)
