A nice big, fat, well-fed, used-to-people grey squirrel in Confederation Park in downtown Ottawa. He gave me and Ryan many great shots, even though we were there to shoot Cooper's hawks and barred owls seen in the park recently, preying on rats that have been thriving in this downtown enclave. Used flash. The gold in his eye seems to be a reflection of an leaf because no way in hell do I have the PS skills to fake something like that in! :-)

Cute; and he does have a rather unusual reflection in his eye.
