While these little tree rodents have broken in and created havoc in my studio by knocking things off of shelves and creating more of a mess than I left, I can still find them charming as they play games with me and the camera. This squirrel played "peek a boo" for quite a time and through many shots.

This is our year of squirrels. Every year there is an abundant of some nature and a decline of another and this year it is the squirrel, lizzard, and wasp that have multiplied, while the tarrantula and gecko have been less available.
