I'm not sure this squirrel appreciated my attentions; I was trying out my 18-55mm VR lens with my "new" D90, and made several attempts to get a good closeup with a lens that wasn't really ideal for the job.

What a charming critter! Nice job--even without an "ideal" lens. I reaaaalllllly want to rub its belly...I never wanted a pet squirrel until today. I somehow doubt the squirrel would be interested in returning my affections though.

They can be vicious little sods, but mostly the ones in that park are pretty tame and will feed from your hand if you're careful, and we fortunately don't have rabies here at the moment. Unfortunately I didn't have any nuts or anything with me when I took this. I have an album of squirrel shots on flickr, but mostly taken with a little Fuji bridge camera, not Nikon
