Nice images, Atilla!
I like 'em both - it's cool that you were able to get two of them in the same shot in #1, and that you got the hole - it's home - in #2.
Do you happen to know what species of ground squirrel they were? Columbia? Uinta? Something else?


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Thank you Tom.

I have plenty of photos with both adult and juvenile present, will have to go through them all and select a couple to post here. They are Richardson's ground squirrels, I believe.

#2 is my favorite of the two. Both are a bit on the dark side.

Thanks much for the feedback - I'm going to go back and edit them a bit more now. :)
