Baby Squirrel by Teresa Zieba

Featured in Squirrels & Chipmunks – June 27th, 2009 / Featured in AMERICAS ~ Rural, Urban, Wild, Free – June 21st, 2009 / Featured in For the love of Canon – June 16th, 2009 / Featured in ImageWriting – June 16th, 2009 I drove my hubby to work one beautiful morning. He was renovating one more, gorgeous house right here in Winnipeg, Canada. I was walking around admiring the grounds of this riverfront, park like property when I noticed 3 adorable baby squirrels playing on a tree. I went back to the car for my camera and started shooting. Got some pretty amazing shots out of it and this is one of them. The little one was trying to blend in hoping I wouldn’t see him. Very smart for his age, lol!!! Hope you like. / Canon XSi. f/5.6, 1/800sec, ISO-200, focal length 300mm.

... Well, Red tried this and got in! My turn!!! by maxy

This huge gray squirrel is trying to follow in the footsteps of Red… Somehow I didn’t think this would end well… and it didn’t ! He more or less got stuck up there like that for awhile after figuring out that in order to get down without falling, he would have to turn around! NOT an easy feat! As is, untouched from camera taken in Rumney, NH July 2009.

Imitation of a Kangaroo.... by maxy

This rather large gray squirrel decided to visit much to Red’s dismay. He was doing an imitation of a kangaroo in the hopes that Red would let him stick around… well .. just for a bit.. just for the 4th of July holiday?

chipmunk 1_09 by John Radosevich

a chipmunk forages for seeds under the sunflower seed feeder. Notice his cheeky pouches are bulging, he is storing seeds for the winter in his den, which happens to be under the siding at the base of our house. He will follow the shrubbery line to get to his home, going at least forty yards out of his way to keep from going out into the open. I guess he feels,”tis better to be safe than be sorry!” / camera Olympus E-3 / lens Sigma 50-500mm f/4.0 / aperature priority f/8.0 / shutter speed 1-160 sec / ISO 400 / focal length 313mm / tripod and cable release used
