Awesome capture.

I love the way the squirrel uses its tail to shield her from the snow.
This is really one in a million.

He should be sleeping not out in the cold snow – poor little guy. I bet he is wondering where spring is. Great shot!

Great shot. Poor thing.

The sad thing about this season is, it could have been taken in my yard LAST week….
