    The largest of our squirrels, nocturnal by habit, peeping out from its sleeping hole to greet the famed nature-lover of our forum ! The eyes are large, dark and protuberant,and evidently meant for night vision. Brilliantly captured at right moment. Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild

    Agree with Saktida . Really lucky to sight and photograph this shy species. Its nice you could get its face in the clear from the leaves in the foreground. Once such sighting and the trip is worth all the effort . Thanks for sharing.

    The squirrel is looking so cute. Its eyes are finding to see someone. Such a beautiful shot.

    Super. Nice sighting. Loved this one. Good that you were quick to click before it moved back into the bole of the tree. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    Very interesting image of the squirrel, Shyamalaji. Looks like after a night of foraging it was just settling down in the morning hours when it gave you 'darshan' . What time was this clicked? Thanks for sharing.

    I love squirrels. This photo is the best. Seems like, it will jump in a short time! Amazing click, Shyamalaji.
