I encountered this squirrel accidentally, I was warned with its short buzzing call.
Most small woodland animals avoid drawing attention to themselves, but not squirrels. They warn the intruder who has set foot on their territory.
After watching me for a few second, the squirrel suddenly jumped out of snow and puzzled me.
In matter of seconds the squirrel rushed at full sail in an unknown direction barely touching the snow.
The squirrel uses both its keen sense of smell and a sharp memory to find its catches of dried berries even under deep, crusted snow.
The squirrel found its hidden dried berry.
It's time to run to the tree and move the berry to safety.
Life goes on.
Кая, спасибо тебе за добрые истории из животного мира. В них доброта и естественность. У белки рассмотрела лапки) спасибо.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures, Kaya !!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute and lovely documented wildlife adventure! xx
ReplyDeleteNext time he will look for another place to hide them! :)
ReplyDeletewow nice action photos. I finally have an agreement with the squirrels in the yard.. If I feed them they will stop their irritating tapping squeaking they do on the fence. It can go on for a long time once they start.
ReplyDeleteQue maravilla de fotos, Kaya, que buena nitidez en la ardilla y como resalta esta sobre la nieve.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Que hermosa secuencia. Las ardillas son como las hormigas, guardan para cuando escasea el alimento. Esta se ha visto recompensada con una fruta.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo y cuídate.
Lo malo es que otro encuentre su escondite y se encuentre sin su alimento.
