Squirrel profile

This red squirrel was in a tree right outside our Langosta beach condo.  I think of squirrels as northern animals rather than tropical animals, but we do have squirrels and raccoons in the neighborhood.

His nose seems to be a little more rounded that I remember of the squirrels in the Midwest and Eastern USA where I previously lived.

This week we are showing some underwater photos from the Sea of Cortez on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site, including several photos of sea lions swimming underwater with us.

  1. He has an interesting stripe down his back and tail.

  2. This squirrel looks much different than the ones we see here. The head is a different shape and the coloring is unusual. Nice shot!

  3. Looks like he's watching you from the corner of his eye. Doesn't trust photographers, I guess.

  4. Many people find them "cute" but I am not a fan. They're pesky little rodents that can cause lots of damage.

  5. This fellow is quite different from those in New England.
