Hi Mark,
Nope I was lying on my belly and the squirrel was just outside the door 
where I had thrown a couple of handfuls of peanuts. So I wasn't very far 
from him.

Very little cropping if any, as he was quite close. Me on one side of the 
glass..... squirrel on the other side, :-) Click click!~ ;-)

cheers,
ted
