Red squirrels are quite common in our area, take a walk in the woods in any direction and you soon have one chattering, chirping and scolding at your passage. Trying to get a good photograph, however, is a bit of a challenge. Their jerky quick movements and habit of getting behind branches and brush make it difficult to get a clear shot. Yesterday I finally came across one sitting on the rocks, enjoying her snack of pine cones. You can often find piles of chewed up cones, but rarely catch a red squirrel in the act of actually eating one.

Neat photo. I've not actually seen one in action either.
