Not unlike the Snake, Sometimes it's, "Squirrel, it's what's for dinner"
Sorry for the poor IQ, I didn't even see this one coming, just threw my camera up and started snapping in machine gun mode... got this one, it was all over in a second or two...
I may have posted this last year under the title "Flying Squirrel" :

I love it and thanks for posting. It reminds me of when I first move to my current neighborhood, which is very suburban but still pretty wild. I was walking down the stairs looking out a octagonal picture window at a squirrel when a red-shouldered hawk swooped down and grabbed him. It was surreal! Your photo is very close to what I saw.Krob78 said:Not unlike the Snake, Sometimes it's, "Squirrel, it's what's for dinner"

AWESOME ... I had made a few images of a Heron eating snake in December 2013, but I couldn't get as close as your shots, as the heron was over on the other side of a small river bank and I was shooting at 200mm with 70-200 lens ... but your images capture the decisive moment superbly. Well done.

Jackson Bill, Yes. Moose-Wilson Rd to the left of the beaver pond a bit. Might be the same guy. Drove by there 3-4 days ago and still covered in snow and about a 4 foot snow bank along the road. One of my go to places for late day places to shoot. Also, lots of Black Bears in the area. About a mile south/west down is where i got the Cinnamon Black Bear shot last fall.
Might be a Brook. Maybe this cropped pic (few frames before) will help you.

Thanks! Great question! I don't think they care, I'm fairly certain this one might have been a water moccasin... I think they just count on winning!!Northstar said:
