Post your best Squirrel shots

[Steve U]

Plenty of room down here Paul, you'll be very welcome.


This shot was at the beginning of the vanishing act, you can just see his beady little snake eye. The snake is about three inches in diameter and he was wrapped around to crush the possum, to swallow it a bit easier. His jaw is dislocated at this stage.

Squirrels are pretty common stupid things that I tend to photograph when I'm bored. Anyone else?

Good Day All:


Nice photo opportunity &amp; the best made of it. Many other interesting ones followed. It really is an unfortunate thing when we humans refer to animals as being stupid. If you ever really take the time to observe and study your subjects you will find that they are in fact, far from being stupid. Just my $.02 as a professional guide that deal with animals of all kinds on a daily basis.

Hi Tim:


I tried to send you a PM but could not figure out how as I did not see the start conversation option on you personal page. So I'll be brief here. Thanks for the support on the animals thing. No offence or criticism intended here for <span class="field-item-description"]dsiegel5151, it is just that when I see people make such statement it just makes me want to take the time to try and get them to look at animals in a different light. Also as a fellow countryman, Thank You for the years of your life that you spent serving our country. If it was not for people such as yourself we would be able to enjoy our lives and Freedom that we now have.We all owe you and your fellow services men and women a great debt of gratitude. <span class="field-item-description"]Thank you very much sir!!!

Wayne, no offense taken. My tone was more of sarcasm anyways. I seem to forget that my joking tone is not picked up on internet forums as easily as in person.

Good Day dsiegel5151:


You are SSSSSOOOOOOO correct on that the tonal inflections that we use in direct personal contact aren't picked up with the written word. I've messed up on that more than a few times, and I'll bet that if you ask any person that frequents forums or blogs they will admit that they have had a similar experience. So no harm no foul &amp; glad we now know where each of us are coming from.





Have A Great Turkey Day Everyone





Godspeed
