"By the sacred grove, where the waters flow
We will come and go, in the forest

In the summer rain, we will meet again
We will learn the code of the ancient ones
In the forest"

Nice shots. I particularly like the first and third and think the B&W effect works well.

You are right.

The first one is so hard to pull off (for me anyway) and you did a great job with it. I like that it is B&W also.

That's the red squirrel - a rare animal.
The red squirrels are displaced from the forest by gray squirrels.

And the B&W effect help to survive the red individuals . )

Interesting photos to view and I like the bw treatment.

I like the squirrel shot as well. Would have been a great picture to add a caption to. There is a lot of personality there

The composition and treatment of the first shot is outstanding, in my view.
