Tree squirrel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Although the term tree squirrel can refer to any arboreal member of the family Sciuridae, it is generally in reference to the common and widely distributed members of the genus Sciurus and close kin, the tribe Sciurini. These genera contain most of the common, bushy-tailed squirrels in North America, Europe, temperate Asia, and South America. The tree squirrels are close relatives of the flying squirrels.

They generally spend little time on the ground, preferring the heights of the forest canopy.

I don't have the exact Tree squirrel's ID. I don't know the three as well.

cute little critter, I love how you were able to get him right where the tree branches out. The lighting is a little hot

Hi Annick,

What a cute little animal you've maneged to capture in a lovely pose.
Looks like sunlight was a bit harsh at that time, but you've really made the best out of it.
Wonderful details and excellent composition.
Very well done. TFS!!!

Best regards, Harry

Hi Annick,
Very good timing to get this nice squirrel picture. The image is sharp in focus and well exposed. Great to see the squirrel in its natural environment.

What a cute little Squirrel :-)
Nice pose you have captured here.
The composition is great!
Sharp and detailed.
I've always wondered why someone would do PP in two different programmes? Is it because they have different tools?

Well done Annick!

Hi Annick,
A nice capture of this beautiful squirrel. Excellent sharp details. Lovely composition. BTW did you see the reply of what is inside? I have dedicated it for you. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Good shot Annick,
Superb focus and good control of the DOF that gives sharp details all over

Cute little guy Annick,

Well done!

I was mentioning this to Bob....one can only see so many squirrils...But I love this shot, for it's not the normal pose, and you've captured it truly well...
Thanks...
