New lens, no birds - squirrel obliged

[Civchic]

So I got my new 55-250 IS on Tuesday night in a totally irresponsible purchasing fit, and couldn't wait to go shoot some urban birds. Then we had a MAJOR snowstorm on Wednesday, and we're still pretty ice locked. NO BIRDS. Not at lunch break, and not at the park with my daughter tonight. But this guy and his buddies were more than accomodating for pictures. C&C appreciated!

I'm so excited about this lens. I can hardly wait for good weather.
