Speeding?/Signs, Signs

Groundhog trying to avoid being shot (by my camera)

Was this groundhog speeding?

I took this photo in Upstate New York last weekend when we were on our way to visit relatives.

This is a fantastic picture! How did you do that? I haven't seen a groundhog in years!

Linda said...

If that groundhog was going that fast, I would definitely stay out of his way! He would be a SUPER groundhog...scary! What a great capture!

Halcyon said...

Hee! He does look like he's running pretty fast. Luckily the po' wasn't around to catch him. :)

Donna Heber said...

I sure got a cute chuckle out of this one! Fantastic shot and I wonder how fast their little legs go.

Getting the groundhog and the speed sign together took some quick thinking on your part.
