20080131 D200 009 Red Squirrel SERIES.jpg

Two shots. First, Giving me the eye as it plots its next move.


Starting to jump with the front paws off the ground, it decides to take the apple to a safer place. (Shot 2 of 2)

The squirrel actually got airborn with the apple, but alas, it dropped it as it jumped to a nearby branch. I just couldn't get that shot, only got a shot of its hind end as it disappeared behind the trunk of the tree.

Amazing that he actually got airborne with this big apple! Great set of photos, and excellent detail. These little guys are such fun to watch and photograph. Topnotch work, Hank! BV
