Default Squirrels

A state park can be a very productive place to photograph wildlife. These squirrels offered just that.


Here's looking at you....

Enjoying a blueberry

This one is my favorite. I just love the way he turned to look back at the camera.

Nice series of shots, in the last you're getting a good look over from her.

Very nice shots. I like the last one as it looks like he is taking one last look. Thanks for sharing and welcome to DPS.

I use a Kodak EasyShare ZD8612 IS camera with a12X optical zoom. These squirrels would almost come up to us, I would say witihin just about 6 feet. We were camped on the White River Stat Park, so the squirrels are ysed to people to some extent. They are still wild.

So cute, we don't have squirrels here, I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing but I think that look adorable.
