57-year-old Canadian Ken Yuel from Winnipeg spotted a fluffy squirrel with cubs in his garden. The animal settled in an old birdhouse, but one day decided to change its place of residence and arranged a “move”, which Ken was able to photograph …
A ginger squirrel gives birth to squirrels in an old abandoned birdhouse in the backyard garden of an apartment building in Winnipeg, Canada. But one spring day, the squirrel mother decided to send the whole family to a new place of residence.
57-year-old Canadian Ken Ewell accidentally noticed in his garden a red squirrel holding its cub in its mouth. She was going to leave the old birdhouse that Ken had once made and move to what she thought was more secure.
However, when the man came very close to the birdhouse, the animal decided that he was in danger and hid inside his house. The Canadian, meanwhile, quickly ran into the house to take a camera, wanting to take unique pictures of the squirrel family.
The squirrel mother finally got tired of waiting and began to drag her squirrels right in front of Ken's camera to a new, more secluded place somewhere among the hedge near a neighbor's barn. She dragged them one by one, holding the little ones tightly by the skin with her teeth.
"- I barely managed to photograph how the squirrel was swarming in front of the entrance to the birdhouse, trying to bring in its baby from there, - says an amateur photographer, - I apparently disturbed her during my work in the garden, as a result of which she was frightened and decided squirrels to another place."
"She dragged them one by one in turn. And she did it pretty quickly. In total, it took the squirrel half an hour. Imagine, she had seven babies!"
When the Canadian processed the photo, he chose the best among them and is now proud of the fact that he managed to photograph, like a squirrel - a mother carries her squirrels. It really turned out to be rare footage.
