These Animal Pics Are So Perfect, You'll Think They're Photoshopped
2. Photograph 12
Clearly stunned by what is happening is the squirrel. For a usually agile and calm squirrel, this picture offers a humorous and uncommon time in their lives. The picture probably shows the little rodent in a condition of seeming astonishment or anxiety, its typical agile behavior replaced by a total confusion. Maybe the squirrel came across an unanticipated barrier, saw something unusual, or stumbled into a funny situation. The photographer's perfect timing has frozen this split-second reaction so viewers may glimpse a rare side of squirrel behavior. The squirrel's wide eyes, maybe lifted paws, or an exceptionally rigid stance could help to explain the general shock sensation. This picture not only makes us laugh but also helps us to understand the emotional spectrum of these little creatures and reminds us that even daily animals can surprise us with their expressive powers. It's evidence of the erratic character of wildlife photography and the delight of catching those ephemeral, unguarded events in the animal world.
