When you can see the effect of the wind on a squirrel, then you know that it is really windy!

I'm amazed that some animals manage to find food during the winter when everything is hidden under a deep layer of snow. There are also people who feed birds etc. during the winter. Those birds are nice to look at, but I spotted a different guest the other day:
hungry squirrel
Apparently, the bird food caught the interest of a squirrel. Think it has been there before a couple of times as well since the snow has often been missing on that part of the branch where the squirrel is sitting.

Went real quick but I managed to get a shot of it, the squirrel hanging down from the branch and stealing some food, then it sat there and ate before hurrying away.

Been working on redesigning the page a bit and there are stil a few more things I want to do and this caused a small break from posting new things. That little break hasn't stopped me from photographing things.

I have a list of different wild animals I want to photo and it will be interesting to see how many of them I'll manage to get before the end of this year. Saw a couple of elks the other night, they were partly hidden behind some trees. Unfortunately it was way to dark at 1 AM to catch them - but I did have the camera at hand.

For now, some roe deers caught during better light conditions: four roe deers
