Red Squirrel in Charge by kathyo

Red Squirrel in Charge

I watched this little red squirrel chase all the big black and grey squirrels away all day. Amazing that such a wee fellow has such boldness and strikes fear into the hearts of the much bigger squirrels. He was like a little blur of red chasing them back and forth. Here he is taking a much needed rest.
Very cute!

Very cute!
I am you Get-Pushed partner this week... Love your animal images, but would like to see the person behind the lens, so your challenge is to take a SELFIE!
I look forward to viewing more of you pictures... Good Luck!

Great close up shot Kathy, I'd like to say "cute" but I don't feel quite the same way about squirrels as you do :)

Is it still -33C out there? I'm surprised he is not frozen stiff!

No...this weekend it warmed up to -20C.....the squirrels stay in their nests when it is -33....they were running around gathering food and I think just getting some exercise. With the sun out it was quite pleasant.

@3rdxoff Oh GAWD! I let my last partner down....couldn't come up with anything to meet the challenge. Now there is no excuse. Time to drag out the tripod! My challenge to you is to take a picture that shows movement. :)
