A Squirrel Doing Well In The Winter
This squirrel and I were startled when we saw each other on the trail. The squirrel went from startled to posing pretty quick though. Normally I don’t make many squirrel photos, but in the winter when the squirrel is eating well they look pretty funny. I am not fat shaming the squirrel at all. In their world the bigger you are this time of the year the better chance you have to survive.
Going Vertical
It is funny how few vertical photos that I make anymore. If I post a vertical image it was most likely cropped from a horizontal. Most of my work requires horizontal images so that is where I am most of the time. With this squirrel though I realized that I wanted to be as tight as possible so I quickly flipped my camera to make the photo.

Any self-respecting squirrel would love to be considered fat at this time of year. When I’m out walking these days, the sound I hear most often (other than the squawking of the geese) is the sound of squirrels gnawing on nuts. 🙂

Oh yeah. This squirrel is ready for the cold weather to hit. The gnawing is the main sound that I hear out at the bog. This squirrel has been doing a lot of that.
At my park, there are shells littering the path in many places, so the squirrels are definitely feasting. 🙂
Fabulous shot.
Thank you!
