So I have at long last made it through the images from the last trip shortly before the next one. Good timing. A view across the St. Lawrence towards Riviere du Loup from St. Simeon.

"Corn"
Story behind the shot. The wildfires from Canada are still causing smoke and haze in our area which makes for some pretty cool sun and moon photos. Still processing things. This shot is from a cornfield with my new Rokinon 14mm @ f/11.

"Mr. Chipmunk"
A family of these has taken up residence in an old woodpile behind our home....turns out they love sunflower seeds!

Don't be deceived by the chipmunk. They can do a lot of damage to your doors if you start feeding them and then have the nerve to go away on holidays.

I was lucky enough to have a loon take off almost straight at me. My settings were for taking pictures of sitting loons, and not B (almost) IF...but...

I'm not feeding directly but they are cleaning up around my bird feeder for now. Sounds like you had some bad experience in the past?
My aunt had a soft spot for 'her chippers' up at the cottage. When she left to go back to the city from time to time they routinely shredded the screen door and scratched up the doors quite a bit. She never stopped feeding them and scolded them severely as she came back out the door with more peanuts for them.

I appreciate the excellent entries this week.
There are several very good photos, but one that I think is near perfect and that is Joel Eade's "Mr. Chipmunk". The pose is right, the background is right, and the detail on the chipmunk is excellent.
Congrats Joel!
