We've all done it...we've all read the signs. "DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS!" But we all do it! Why? And why is it so often forbidden? Perhaps that is what our furry friend here is asking with his tail curled up in a "?".

To all the people who don't think it fit the challenge...
"Feeding the animals" is a bad habit...*sheesh*...I figured viewers would figure that out...next time I know it's better to simply put it BLUNTLY in the title.
We were in Balboa Park and every animal we came across my mom insisted on feeding. Sadly, i think a lot of people knocked me for this...
Live and learn...sadly, my latest submission didn't get finished until 10 minutes too late for submission into three...so being so annoyed at these stupid time restraints that keep killing my best photo submissions. I just submitted it to sports. Technically, it IS a sport....
SWORDFIGHTING!!!
Yeah, okay, so it's not a modern sport but it was quite the popular team sport a few centuries back....
i love that the picture is mostly of grays so nothing takes away from the squirrel..the squirrel is also in great focus..i know how hard it is to actually catch these things in a right moment. great job.
It's a picture of a squirrel. How does it fit the challenge? The photo itself is rather charming. I like the squirrel's pose - the colors are wonderful and I enjoy the way the posts and fencing in the background lead the eye around the frame. The tree to the right bothers me a little, I might like to see it cropped a bit to minimize it or a deeper DOF to give it more texture to contrast with the texture of the squirrel's fir.
