Red Squirrel

[Rubber Soul]

Went up to Loch Balgavies hoping to get some Osprey in flight shots. Low lying clouds and no sun ruled that out.
Whilst waiting in desperation for the sun to break out this red Squirrel appeared right in front of the hide.

Take the luminance of three to one and two
and you will have a very cool set, Gary!

Some nice unexpected images there, sounds like right place at the right time. I've always got time for Red Squirrels. Like @Kodiak Qc says the first image looks a little under exposed compared to the third image. It may be worth boosting the exposure a little.

Thanks for looking and commenting.

Thank you.
The Squirrel stayed for 20 minutes, so I got plenty of shots. Though it was cloudy so I had to bump up the ISO.
