Squirrels of the BWC

[Overread]

Just a few squirrel shots - not too many, though I have not gone through all the shots - worst part is how quick they move!

all taken with Canon 400D, canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS and 1.4 teleconverter

Albino grey squirrel - a tricky shot as he was behind a lot of wire, only possible as he was sleeping nearer the back of the cage, so I could get right up close to the bars and not get them in the shot.

Thanks all! I agree I do like that first one - a shame that its not soo good fullsized (noisy even on the squirrel sadly) but at this size its just right Definatly a pose I was happy to get

Reds do make me laugh in their summer colours, they just don't look right without the ear tuffs. great shots
