Do you like squirrels?

Thought I'd share these pictures of squirrels - they look so cute in the winter it really puts a smile on my face to watch them!

I realize the last one isn't a squirrel, but still adorable!

Yeap pretty cute critters lol. The photos look pretty good. What Zoom lens did you use or were you lucky enough to have a squirrel just come up and let you take its picture.

I tried to take a photo of the Hawaiian squirrel (mongoose) :evil: but they are not too friendly.

Was shot #1 taken through a fence? It seems like theres a cross pattern on the photo, can't tell if my eyes are playing tricks on me or not hehe. Good photos though, squirrels are interesting little creatures.

Love that first squirrel. I might have cleaned up the background and and added a bit of contrast.

XD thanks for the fix up - actually yes the squirrels was taken through the fence...I wasn't good enough around PS to try and remove the grey marks. Mind if I ask how you removed the marks?

It was taken with a 55-200mm zoom lens, at 200mm..the squirrel was quite far away, when you walk close they actually hide INSIDE the cage and stare at you, then they come back out when you're a good distance away again.

IMO they are definitely getting very chubby!!

Chubby! That guy is a straight up fatty! Lol

I just used the healing brush to smooth out the darker sections of the snow.

Love the first one. Real nice. :thumbup:
The other two aren't that good. Little simple.
Cheers
