Just a squirrel checking out my camera trap set up. By getting the camera box right on the ground — partially buried in the leaves — allowed this shot of a very common subject to be a bit more interesting than if taken at a higher angle. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 17-35mm lens (at 17mm) ISO 500, f/14 at 1/200th of a second.

Big puffy tail certainly gives you a different view
From that angle
It looks like you walked in on him doing something. What’s he got there behind that leaf?
He can’t quite figure out what that thing is! You can almost see the wheels turning in that little head. I doubt much is going on in there anyway.
