A visit to the zoo wouldn't be complete without stopping by the ground squirrels. These cute little animals are always ready for excellent photo opportunities even without long focal lengths. A must-see and my favorites for the 70-200mm lens.

A Columbian ground squirrel showing off its beautiful reddish-tan coat. These little ones spend up to nine months of the year hibernating, so it's always a treat to see them out and about. #animalphotos #columbiangroundsquirrel #groundsquirrel #vermilionlakes #canada #banff #photos #photography
At North Cascades National Park, I encountered the roundest dang Cascade Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel that I've ever seen. Look at this magnificent creature!
