Really perfec capture of the beautiful animal !!! Thanks for the info about his ears !!:)
hilarydougill
he actually looks to have all sorts of different ones, he must have been given them, because we don’t have Brazils in England., or Almonds, we do have hazelnuts. A wonderful horde. hugsxxx

Jacky Parker
I’m sooo jealous what a beautiful capture Krys, is the centre open again? or was this taken elsewhere? absolutely love it!!! :)))))))
Krys Bailey replied
Thanks Jacky! Yep this is the BWC which was open for half term week (still is). I was so lucky as at feeding time the squirrels didn’t show but this little guy came and sat around for a few minutes! They’re apparently building a new walk-through enclosure for the squirrels – that should be fun! ;o)

Beautiful !! xx

I love those tufted ears, that long flowing tail draped so perfectly across his backside, and that bright-eyed look into the camera. As always, you captured him at his very best! Beautiful portrait of a beautiful little creature!

Andy Mueller
What a shot, Krys! He’s got some claws, huh?

Wonderful capture Krys !!! love the color of his fur, wow I just noticed that he has a long ears :o totally different than the north American one huh interesting ;)
Krys Bailey replied
Thank you kindly! The ears only have this long fur during the winter – I suppose it keeps them warm! ;o)
Ed Moore
Hi Krys…What an interesting and somewhat funny photo. It looks like me watching football after I haven’t shaved or chopped down the hair growing out of my ears (I usually leave it long so I can’t hear my wife)! But wait…where’s the beer? Nicely done, as always! ;-)
Krys Bailey replied
The beer? We’d already finished that off before this guy arrived on the scene!!! ;o) Don’t want to let a squirrel get drunk else they keep falling off their trees! ;o)
Richard G Witham

Just perfect Krys, we used to see nothing but these in Scotland as a child, sadly it’s only greys we see down in Devon, those Winter tufts on it’s ears are so cute, wonderful work,
Regards, Rod.

Thanks Rod! You’re right about those beautiful ears! I’d never seen on in the UK until I visited the British Wildlife Centre where these little fellas live.
