Squatter takes possession of my camera bag

[Geoff F]

When photographing insects today, I put my backpack down in a patch of shady grass and while my back was turned this squatter took possession of it and claimed the bag was now part of his territory!



He refused to give the bag back so I thought the best plan was to ignore him, after taking a photo. I returned to my insect portraits and after 5 minutes he got bored and went on his way.

I struggled to find a camera angle which didn't have out of focus grass leaves in the way.

He wouldn't get off the bag, so you shot him?

You found a Kardashian, just wanted a portrait or three taken. Nicely captured.

It was showing approval of your photography.

Thanks for the comments.

I had been looking for some frogs or toads to photograph a couple of weeks earlier but the few which I found wouldn't sit still long enough for me to focus. Then, when I'm looking the other way . . .
