Always great to see the reds. That second shot is the standout by a mile, but it would be improved no end if you were to crop the bottom of the frame to lose the out of focus area that dominates the lower portion. I know it would make the frame near square which not everybody likes, but just try scrolling the shot to the bottom of your page - its really worthwhile. Sharpness and details are bang on.

Nice set of images, I was there on Sunday evening between 17:00 and 19:00, it was absolutely chocka with people so it wasn't until 18:00 that I actually saw any squirrels (I think they'd all been keeping out the way from every dog and his man), I did get a similar shot to your last one....

I've tried a square crop here. I see what you mean, but still undecided
