Squirrel at the cementary

After a longer winter in spring time I often stay at the cementary near my home for several hours for some bird and squirrel photography there. It is not so cold there anymore and staying there even for several hours is great when seeing many different birds and when I can watch some squirrels collecting nuts and other food they find there. Spending my free time in the nature is really always so nice since there are often so many beautiful things to see and discover, when I am able to take some pictures of birds and other animals or beautiful landscapes this pays off very good.

The cementary is a good place to get some really close up pictures since the animals there are used to humans and are not so much afraid so getting close to them doesn't scare them away so easily. And also some people are feeding them there that makes them really interested in all the human activity around them since from time to time there could be a free nut for them. I usually don't bring any nuts for bribery for them since they already get enough from other people and I think it is better for them to find the food on their own.
