In working with my squirrels, I have often seen what I call the elevator pose. This is where a squirrel gets on its hind legs. It can be used to express various emotions, such as a greeting, a means of getting your attention, or seen when another squirrel is approaching.

One day, as I was working with a squirrel, out of the corner of my eye, I spotted another squirrel close by in this pose and staring directly at me. He looked adorable, but he was coming down from his pose when I saw him. I apologized and asked if he could do it again. Without missing a beat, he immediately resumed the pose and held it as I, in shock, captured the moment. It's not the first time I've had experiences like this. As a Speech Pathologist, I can't help but wonder if we, as humans, are the ones who don't understand their language. Just saying!

While some images may not be tact-perfect, I chose to share them because of what was captured.

I hope you enjoy!

These are the best images of squirrels I think I have ever seen. You certainly did catch the moment and I really like the last one. It looks like the little guy is just asking if you would be his friend.

Sincerely appreciate the compliment and the feedback. I suspect he was telling me he'd pose for some peanuts!

Cute set. Squirrels may be smarter than us. They will pretend to bury a nut if a thieving squirrel is watching, and run off to hide the nut while the would be thief is digging in the wrong spot.

After working with them, I totally agree. The other trick is you toss them a nut, and they pretend they can't find it, so you, of course, toss another! Got wise to that real quick! Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks, appreciate the kind feedback. Yeah, I've been actually working with them several times a week since last June. I've learned a lot from them!
