[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I couldn't resist to post another picture of a ground squirrel I took when I was in Namibia, near Sesriem Park.

There were a few of them, like the one you can see in a previous post.

I had a few seconds to take this picture as the squirrels could move away at every time if they heard even a small noise and thus danger.

I don't know what it is eating. I only know it found it quite tasty ;)

Bonjour Emmanuelle,
une photo bien sympathique.
Il n'est pas commun de voir ces animaux, et encore moins dans de telles attitudes.
Une photo nette et précise, pleine de détails.
Prise au bon moment.
Bien à toi.
Daniel.

What an adorable creature! Well done for capturing this on camera with good detail. I know how fast they can move and it's really quite difficult to take a good photo of them.

Salut Emmanuelle,

Bravo, c'est un tres belle photo animaliere que tu as ici. J'aime beaucoup l'expression et la netteté de l'animal. Cependant il aurait été bien (si tu avais eu le temps) d'avoir toute la queue...

A bientot.

Hi Emmanuelle, A fun capture with a good note. The intense desert colours are a trademark of some of your photos, a delight to see. Well portrayed. Murray.
