Great contest entry with this little guy. His bright red tail catches your eye and leads your eye to him as you check him out. He is standing so still and stiff. Love the framing and good details you have captured. Good luck in the contest.

A beautiful picture of this little American Red Squirrel enjoying the seeds that have fallen from the Bird feeder above onto the snow carpeting the ground. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Very good entry for the contest. Most of our squirrels in the UK are grey ones which have overtaken the red ones so this is a real treat to see this little red one catching the bird seed. He looks very well fed! Very good lighting and focus showing a nice crisp image. I love the pose you caught as if he's waiting for you to say something because he's pinching the bird seed! Great composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Nice shot, adorable expression, that's one happy guy with enough food to last him a while . Nice detail and focus in the fur as well as in the snow surrounding him. Hope he comes back to pay you more visits and you'll be able to get some more shots.

Thanks Dale. The black and the white squirrels are part of the grey squirrel family. I see some black ones now and then but have yet to get a good shot of them! I did post a white squirrel not too long ago. I guess I think they are all cute :)
-
Yes I seen the white albino squirrel they have red eyes, I seen the black squirrel to day in the back yard but yet have been able to get a good shot,
-
I hope you get him!! I would like to get that shot but I rarely see the black ones. Fingers crossed for both of us :)
