 I was testing a Canon 70-300 mm is lens.

Ok. I'll explain. Or try to.
When I first read that "peanuts" theme I thought of Charlie Brown and his
mates. And when I got this shot of my grandsons I quickly submitted it and thought. "Now all I need is a good punchline to connect my boys to C.B." Only, the punchline didn't come, no matter how hard I thought. So the picture went on with its temporary title and you lot were left confused and I feeling kind of stupid.

Thanks for favourable comments and votes. Especially those two tens. I really needed them. :-)

Surely, the boy on the left is shelling a peanut. Regardless, I love the picture.

What does this have to do with peanuts? Perhaps these kids are your "peanuts"? Nice pic, even though I am dense and can't see the obvious relevance.

No squirrels or other small rodents eating a nut or other food stuff. You getting hammered in voting?

I like the studious look on their face, though.

So how bad are you getting slammed for not entering an actual nut? It is difficult to judge this after seeing so many nuts but I am all for open interpretations so bravo for braving the muddy dpc waters. A 7 for you.
