I shot this photo of a visitor to a back porch feeder during a recent snow.
Squirrels are rare in that they can be so cute and so annoying at the same time. They hog bird food and when you catch them in the act, they give you this look like they are saying “so what are you gonna do about it?”
From a photographer’s viewpoint though, squirrels really standout in the the snow and the have no problem posing for photos. They also are not deterred by bad weather. The feeder is always the object of their affection. Squirrels are sort of like the U.S Postal service of animals, no matter, snow, sleet rain…..

Thanks so much for dropping by today, Rob.

Nice pic, but he looks so cold, he’s clenching his little paws to try & warm them up?
