This photo is the reason I love photographing animals and people candids. They all do amazing things if you wait long enough. 

@thomas-gradie Hello Thomas, if you are trying to post a photo - you will need to make a few more regular/text posts before the forum allows you to post images.

Oh, in that case thank you for your comment!

I also enjoy taking candid photos of animals doing something funny, or interesting. Except I do not have the patience to wait long enough for that to happen :-) Instead, I try to pass by locations where I can watch them often enough to eventually capture something interesting... like squirrels eating french fries :-]
