More snow, more squirrels.  by blightygal

More snow, more squirrels.

Yep, woke up to find the snow had settled again, boooooo! I wonder how many men up and down the country are cursing the fact that they left Xmas shopping til today, only to be faced with travel chaos?!! He he.
My photo today was an easy one, and fairly predictable for me! Although not technically great (there is some movement) I liked this one best because I think they look uber cute up on their hind legs. This was taken a nano second before it ran away, due to one of the many cats we have now stalking the wildlife in our garden and next doors - he has an avary.

Off to brave the children at the cinema in a couple hours, Tron 3D, oh yeah! Been looking forward to this film for ages :-) Happy weekend folks!
Lovely shot. Haven't started Xmas shopping yet. I'll wait till after the weekend. Hope the films good!

I'm beginning to think you have trained squirrels in your garden. He is just the cutest thing ever! I think I may have to add him to my collection of squirrel faves :) Love it.

He seems to be saying "Oops - caught me with my mouth full!"
December 18th, 2010

December 18th, 2010  
Just love how you caught him mid-bite and he's looking at you as if to say, "I'm busy here, go away."

This is outstanding, I can never get close enough they always run, and my zoom isn't the best, bah xxxx

This is too cute! I love that you caught him with a peanut(?) in his mouth.

My husband and I went and saw Tron on Friday. I was NOT looking forward to it. I thought it was going to be a bit too dorky of a movie for me. But I loved it!! We saw it in IMAX in 3D and it was well worth the $16 price. I would watch it again.
