Caroline presents - SquirrelFest Winter 2010

Some seasonal pics from our top photographer, Caroline,  at this years SquirrelFest event in Montreal, late December 2010.

More generally great squirrel poses

People often assume that I am simply a squirrel lover, but it must be said that half the reason I love squirrels so much is based on the fact that they are awful. They are crusty garbage eating jerks, and I celebrate that (as I am not a home owner). Here are some more pictures that capture their wonderful shiftiness.

This is one of my personal favourites. He could be pooping, or just acting polite.

More mischief.

Squirrels in action

I tried to do a little study of squirrels in mid jump. They are quick and I am not, but there were a few keepers in which I am sharing in this post.

I know it's been way too long since I have posted anything, and fall has already arrived. I vow to keep fresh squirrel pics coming through as often as possible.

this guy could be photoshopped to be a football player, but I'm not going to do that.

Getting into the facts

Here is some lesser known, yet essential squirrel facts:

We have a squirrels in motion series coming out very soon. Stay tuned!

The lovely and talented Caroline presents:

Some of the most exciting and tasteful squirrel photography available anywhere is right here on Westmount Squirrels, and it brings me great pleasure to bring the bar up one more notch with a talented guest photographer, Caroline Lavergne.

A light snack....

On the look out.

One of the more friendly ones.

Perhaps a bit unsure of the situation?

Probably a leader,  maybe not park, but at least a tree leader.

Very, very sweet.

Squirrels do smile.

My favorite kind of squirrel - The Jerk.

Nice guys finish last.

N.D.G squirrels

Though technically not in Westmount, these friendly squirrels let us take pictures while they snacked on flax crackers someone carelessly dropped. See the other post  for amazing photos from Caroline Lavergne. 

....more squirrels!!

What is this guy doing, playing the air sax?

Wonderful pose - like a school picture or something

More squirrels in the park

Still got to get out and meet the street squirrels, as well as capture some action shots. I have met a few squirrels in the past few days that really put on a show,  of course while I had no camera.

Westmount park

There were some real posers out this morning. I think there were  a few times the message was being sent that they wanted to chew my face off more than be friends, but regardless, I got the shots. Still hoping to get some mid air shots and HD squirrel fight videos in the coming weeks.
