The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
This afternoon I thought I heard harmonica playing right out back so I took a look and saw a ground squirrel wailing away on a french harp! I managed to get this photo so folks would know that I was not making it up. Wow! Not long ago, I caught one playing the bongos. Talented menagerie back there…
Specific Feedback
Cropping? Exposure? Believability?

Dave, I think with that grip he’ll only manage “One Note Samba”. Still, it’s a good start, and the bongos will get the beat I’m sure. A sure-fire hitmaking follow-up to the Chipmunks (if you remember them). Get them to sign a contract quick! Cash for you, unlimited nuts for them.
They (CA Ground Squirrels) have become a nuisance here, and only in the last few years. They have turned the steep ten foot banks of our modest winter creek into a grotto, with no remaining vegetation. And are now trying to tunnel under our house. They sunbathe on our deck. A neighbor discovered they were destroying his leach field and started shooting them. He got 23 the first day. Smoke bombs work well, at night when they are in the burrows, and in winter when they are raising the young. I hate killing things but they are out of control. The population had increased hugely in the last few years.
