A squirrel stood on its hind legs, staring at the camera with an apparent expression of surprise

I took this in September 2018, in a small green area behind the Landungsbrücken station near the centre of Hamburg.

I stopped off on my way elsewhere because I knew the area had squirrels and it seemed like it might be a good opportunity to test out the new lens I'd recently bought. I was walking along the path, tracking a different squirrel up in the trees, when suddenly I came around a curve and this cute little thing was right there. I'm not sure which of us was more surprised.
