##### *Hey everyone!*

##### *Squirrels are awesome animals. They are cute, have ninja skills and are also very intelligent.*

##### *You probably know that the long tail helps the squirrel to balance and steer when jumping from one tree to another and running along branches. But did you know that the furry tail also keeps the animal warm during sleep?*

##### *Squirrels are also very intelligent creatures. They are known to bury bogus food to deceive onlookers. The fake burials are to trick potential thieves, into thinking that the food is stored there. Any observers will then focus on the bogus burial site, allowing the squirrel to hide the real stash somewhere else safely. Very smart isn't it?*

##### *What do squirrels eat? Mostly the seeds of trees, but also fungi, nuts and berries.*

##### *If they're really hungry and desperate, they can become evil. Bird eggs or nestlings may get on their menu, but very rarely.*

##### *Anyway, I got some cool shots of  the two squirrels I met. They are quite difficult to photograph when they are acting like ninjas all the time.*
