2005-02-21: This is for me, right?

Sharon, Vermont

Red squirrel at the suet feeder in a snowstorm.
It was about 10F (-12C) with very fluffy flakes.
The squirrel was competing with the chickadees,
nuthatch, and downy woodpecker for the food we had.

Ha ha, good capture. Looks like he's a circus performer hanging from one of those things that I don't know what to call in English :)

Great capture. I'm picturing squirrel judges sitting off to the side, scores in hand, waiting for the dismount.

Wonderful shot. And, I see you have REAL snow - not like our five minute wonder in London.

What a shot...outstanding :)

They are tenacious creatures and I love to watch them. This is an outstanding, if not a bit discouraging, (for the birds) shot.

Nice capture! I like the grey hues...they suggest bitter cold. Sure hope the little fella has a microwave to heat his dinner.

He should be hibernating, heheh.

Brilliant, I love it!

Nice action shot. Poor little guys have a hard time in the cold.
