Fence Hopping (Explored)

Fence Hopping (Explored)
The Saturday Self-Challenge: Take a photo of something in your home or yard that is serene or calming to you.

Today, I cancelled my trip to Africa scheduled for July. A minor disappointment in the grand scheme of things. I actually felt worse for the tour guides and conservationists who must be suffering from the loss of the tourist income. To ease the sting, I have been going on safari in my yard with my 150-600 lens. I have been very careful not to point the camera anywhere near my neighbors' windows, even if an interesting bird is in the foreground. It is very peaceful to photograph the animals that live in and around the yard.

It was a very gray day, and this squirrel was kind enough to pass over the gray fence. I wonder how he avoids splinters.
