Before the barn cats came to our barn and multiply a lot we had 7 squirrels in our front yard and sometimes I see rabbits. When the barn cats dominated the entire property I could only see at least one but the squirrel won't stay long. The squirrel knew that cats are around and maybe to avoid bloody war the squirrel just go across the road and live there. This one I captured him trying to get away from "somebody" and you know who ^_^
I am linking to Straight of the camera Sunday and Shadow Shot Sunday
He is running from something. They can be ferocious if they need to be.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great action shot. Great job.
ReplyDeletePerhaps the squirrel is taunting the resident kitties, figuring that he can climb out of harms way faster than a cat. A strategy full of danger, but to each squirrel his own...
ReplyDeleteLOL! A squirrel on the run! Who'd a thought?!?
ReplyDeleteRalph might have a good point; perhaps they are taunting the cat(s)!
Oh, I love the squirrel!! What a great capture! Yep, think Ralph may have a good point, I've seen them do my cats that way when I still had cats. Hope your weekend is going well! Enjoy!

Bounding and leaping,
ReplyDeleteO squirrel, are you keeping
away from your foe?

What a great shadow shot..I would run too, knowing cats might be after me..Great how you caught the little squirrel in action.
ReplyDeleteHappy SSS.
He's running out of the shadows into the light. He would be smart to run back into the shadow where he is harder to see.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun capture! I also think my hubby has a point..the squirrel is taunting the cats.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by today ;-)
Have a good week.
What a great shot. He certainly looks like he is running from something.
ReplyDeleteHow cool that you caught the squirrel in that position!
ReplyDeleteMy squirrels love to tease Scratchy when she's in her pen, but when she prowls the hood, they know they're boundaries in Scratchy's world...or they're toast!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot! He's definitely on the run!
ReplyDeleteFantastic capture, lovely timing.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great shot! Your plush grass looks very welcoming :)
ReplyDeleteI think Mr Squirrel has taken tango lessons - what a mover!
ReplyDeleteWOW what an action shot! He looks frightened!
ReplyDelete"Look at me! I can run and jump at the same time! This is fun!!!"
ReplyDeleteSSS greetings from rainy and cold (+10 C) Helsinki, Finland!
