Posing for a Portrait

Not a whole lot going on in the yard these days other than squirrels, a bunch of sparrows, and a couple of house finches.  This little guy was eating the seed that had fallen beneath the feeders about 15 feet from my front door.  
I went in, grabbed the camera, went back out, and then got down on the ground and slowly crawled towards him (as close as the lens would allow).  I took about 30 photos and chose this one for todays blip because I loved the contrast of the squirrel against the dark background (happens to be the front of my SUV).
