Williamsburg Animals







We established in an earlier post that I like Williamsburg.
There are many things to photograph in the Colonial Capital. One of the objects I enjoy are the animals.
There are horses pulling carriages and oxen pulling carts through the streets. In the Spring, you get to watch lambs in the fields.
An animal that has the run of the city are squirrels. They don't seem to mind posing for the camera.
On one visit I was standing by a tree looking around for a photograph. There was a lot of noise coming out of a trash barrel.
Out popped a squirrel with something in his mouth. Up a tree he scampered. I focused on him as he sat in a tree and ate an ice cream cone that was thrown away.
Keep your camera handy in Williamsburg as images to photograph can pop up anywhere and at any time.
