Very rarely in the forest outside the city I come across these furry animals. Most often, of course, they can be found in city parks, where they are tame and accustomed to people. And here in the forest they are wild and their life is not easy.
They are forced to look for food for themselves, stock up for the winter and insulate their homes from severe winter frosts.
Just in the photo, the squirrel is looking for food in the middle of fallen leaves.
And she found something. I saw how they collect various plant seeds, cones, mushrooms.
They are also in danger everywhere. Basically, these are birds of prey flying over the forest, and forest stray dogs.
In this photo below, the squirrel was running away from someone, and then she saw me.

It was a great escaped and you are the lucky one to have it ran to for a photography!
The one where it is sitting on the tree is so cute

I wish I had these guys around here, I would have to travel much farther north to see longer eared squirrels like these.
