I love squirrels but I don’t live near any, meaning I don’t get to enjoy them on a daily basis.
But this week we’re house-sitting in Coyoacan, a neighborhood in southern Mexico City. And there’s several fantastic, noisy, social squirrels roaming about the property, enjoying the lush gardens. One of them (below) looks like a typical squirrel, the other one is dark brown and has a very thin tail – not sure what species he/she is. They are having a fun time barking at my dog, who, in turn, is barking back.
They’re also falling prey to my lens!

awesome shot! our squirrels never looked so good!
Best blog ever.
Great photo! I think I’ve only had luck catching them mid-air with my camera once..very difficult. I love your blog and that you are a fellow squirrel admirer!
