well I hope it was not carrying rabies for your benefit.super picture however
with hindsight I can see how irresponsible I was because they can carry allsorts but we havent had a case of Rabies here in the UK since the 60's
Well I for one do not want your's to be the next. Great shot though Alan, I had to laugh for two reasons one because it did nibble your finger and two because I was thinking of my brother and his escapade with the little nut grabbers.lol. I must say I did enjoy the day but my legs are still making me think about it. Excellent capture. Bravo!!!!!
Great capture,i bet that hurt LOL, excellent well done.
cannibal squirrels in the uk ,obviously more taken with your thumb alan .great action shot though alan and keep an eye on that thumb of yours just in case !! mick
Remarkable Work! 5!
Ouuuuchhhhh that hurts ;O) But he is so adorable .... LOL
You're a happy man to have such contact with animals. A capture full of tenderness, even though it may hurt sometimes !!!
Did he brush his teeth before nibbling a bit? haha!!! ahhh man thanks for my first good laugh of the day! wonderful capture, considering!!! have a great day Alan! lol
A great shot and comment Alan. You must have been very patient to get this capture, Sig...
Ahhh..the memories...Your entry sparked a lost thought: Some 5-8 yrs ago a squirrel(god only knows where or why he showed up)found his way to my fathers back yard and a big oak tree, he laid on a branch all day, dad took notice and carried some green-uncooked nuts(he loves boiled nuts)and laid'em out, down came the begger, gone were the nuts, next day he's at the base of the tree, same routine-lay some nuts out, again gone were the nuts, next day he was at the back door looking in lower glass, waiting for his snacks, dad carries out the snacks, he DOESN'T run, tossed out the snacks and so on...Next day dad doesn't see'em, goes out, next thing ya know the begger is down at his feet and CLIMBING his pants leg headed for his hand-out, he didnt bite dad, he grabbed the nut, and booked...later the same day I tried a daring tactic, I put some nuts in my top cig-pocket of t-shirt I had on, dammed if he didnt come down, climb my leg, went for hand, I reached for pocket, he got the idea and went headlong into pocket, found his "gold" and split back to tree, day after day I could go over to the old mans place and put 2-3 nuts in pocket and I swear it was the funniest thing to be climbed and ravaged LOL by a ninja squirrel, he continued this for days, he never bit us, he never acted like a pit bull, he acted like a youngon after a gum drop, since then I have always took the time to feed the beggers where I live, raised 1 newbie that was neglicted by mother some 4 yrs ago....Wanted to share a simple moment, sorry to have been long winded...Have a good one...
Great shot, especially considering the situation! LOL at the content advisory and hope the thumb okay.
Superb capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cool shot and funny to
great shot, I didnt knew they ate meat.
Excellent capture.I can only imagine this bite was sore.
Biting a hand what feed you...not a good attitude. Great moment thou. Oouch
Splendid capture!
Poor thumb, what we do for that "perfect capture" LOL Glad you survived it. : )
Wow - talk about suffering for your art! This is an amazing capture! If it had been me, all you would have seen in this picture was a blurry tree and sky as my arm jerked back and my shutter finger convulsed in sympathy!
at first i didn't know what the advisory was about... then i read your comment and was informed where you pre-focused... i'm glad you cropped that part out! LOL
Hi Alan wonderful capture so much warmness sweet evening to you warm hug, Linda
lol @ timtripp i would have been quite angry with that squirrel
I love this shot and the pov makes is real! We have a pet squirrel we raised from a hairless pink thing and I don't handle it often. It doesn't bite, thankfully, or at least it doesn't bite with INTENT. But it's claws are like little alligator teeth and pierce skin like a toothpick pierces an olive! only its more like 20 toothpicks all at one time. Don't try to shake them off or brush them away! Oh, no! they can cling to a branch in gale force wind and that goes for spastic human flesh also!
Beautiful capture...
Adorable but ooch!!! Well done Alan. xx
:0>!
It is a very beautiful and very interesting photo!
Cute shot and story, I was almost afraid to open "horror" Hope it you learned not to fee wild animals and that you recover well too :o)
Go on, take a nibble.. :) GREAT shot!
