MM 30 Dec 2019: Eye of the Beholder

            Macro Mondays theme: Redux 2019 (Eye of the Beholder) and (Hobby)

To a birder squirrels are often considered vermin. While not predators per se, they are notorious for stealing the food put out for their feathered brothers and sisters. My birds (the ones who are members of my daily Breakfast Club) have come to accept the furry ones who feast alongside them in the grass. I end up photographing the squirrel antics as often as the birds. I normally drew the line at feeding any of them at my upstairs window sill because they frightened my indoor cockatiel. I routinely scatter crushed peppers on it to deter the squirrels who were quite boldly scratching at the glass looking for more of the magic stuff that gets flung daily from my window. It works for the most part but when the recent heavy winds and rain and wind cleaned the flakes away, this friendly young grey squirrel wouldn't shift from the sunflower hearts I'd left for some newly arrived coal tits. So I put my lens right up to his face and shot through the double glazing.
