Hi Steem-ers,
Here is another @boyerobert originals. Found this guy along the water while walking Beethoven. I heard a rustling on the shoreline however could not see what was making all the noise. As you can see from the picture the groundhog blends in very well in it’s natural habitat. Took me a few seconds to spot him. He was collecting leafs bringing them into his burrow. Once he saw me, he froze like a statue. "If I don't move, he won't be able to see me." lol Pictures was taken with my #D850, 28-300mm lens. I took the shot at 300mm didn't want to get too close to scare him off, F11 - 1/400.
Tell me what you think.
Thanks!!
Best regards, @boyerobert
