It’s that time of year when the nuts are in high demand. In this case, I believe that’s a black walnut. I’ve been testing out a new lightweight camera trap setup to take to Peru this weekend. Hopefully I can get some shots like this, only with Amazonian creatures doing what they do. Nikon D3300 with Nikkor 18-55mm lens (at 18mm) ISO 400, f/11 at 1/200th of a second, two Nikon SB-900 flash units with Camtraptions remote triggers and camera housing.
Ha, thanks Sue. I’m glad I didn’t remove those two leaves. Sometimes when I go up there to check the trap, I wipe the leaves away, but always nice to have them fall in a symmetrical way.

It’s weird how a picture of a squirrel with a nut is so much cuter than a picture of a squirrel trying to nut.
Gave you a real softball today Louis.
Wonderful shot! I love the two leaves in the foreground, one green & the other yellow. It’s a stunner!

He has that “got caught with my hand in the cookie jar” look. Fun shot! Can’t wait to see your Peru pics. Have fun, be safe!
