Portrait of a young squirrel · 02:00 PM

I call this a "portrait" because this squirrel really seemed to pose to me

That's a really "Squirrely" photo. Great shot!

Thanks Jim! Yes, it is with Sigma 100-300, ca. 240mm. A bit cropped and downscaled to the web...

A very handsome and lithe young fellow! Nice capture.

Great picture! Lovely little face and it does seem to be posing. Wish I'd have one of them in MY backyard.
