The crows and squirrels usually compete for the peanuts. The squirrels usually win out.
If you’re wondering how I got this capture simply I set it up and waited!

I agree with Wendy – your outtake is funnier and better technically, although this one is certainly an order of magnitude harder/luckier to capture. I wonder if you could improve it in post-processing by making the background less dark, your crow would stand out much better.
during voting i thought this might be Wendy or you .. !! ..
it was a toss-up .. as both you guys are amazing photographers .. with lots of patience ..
it would have been great if the squirrel had gone to the crow's food and vice versa .. as in a just a bit funny .. !! ..
many congratulations on such a brilliant photo Larry .. :)
ps .. just noticed Wendy's comment about the outtake .. i'll have to check it out .. :)
I didn't know someone was taking over my squirrel photos! I used to be the squirrel queen!!!
Congrats on the blue! But I definitely prefer your shot in the outtake. Even though it's incredible that you got them both in the same shot, I like the humor better in the outtake, and it also is a better shot, imo. But this is a hoot!
cute as .. !! ..
whoever has squirrels coming to their homes is a very lucky photographer ..
and to get a crow and a squirrel together ..
someone has lots of patience ..
and i think i know who ..
good luck in the challenge ... this will ribbon for sure .. :)
