The photos are all taken from the same spot, just with different lenses. The number in the caption of each photo is the size of the lens.

But yeah sitting outside and waiting long enough for wildlife to approach is a nice meditation in and of itself. If you're flustered they won't approach, and you have to sit relatively still and quietly for an extended time, so it's a nice metaphor for how to observe the mind and let it naturally calm to a restful state.

Also squirrels will approach pretty close if you're sitting still enough. It's pretty magical to see the curious little guys checking you out. Anyone who claims animals don't have sentience has simply never looked one in the eyes...
