Lost teddy - Dossing

The first one is really amazing! I love them all, but the squirrel is just so darn cute

Thanks alessya.

On Fuerteventura (Canary islands) there are now around 300,000 and are threatening indigenous species.
Apparently they were kept as pets in the 60's and it is thought these were the escapees.

Chipmunks/ground squirrels.

These were at the salt farm (Los Salinos) and are people friendly. They are very amusing and gentle, although bear in mind they are wild and could take off a finger.
I still have all mine.

Wish you could send me one We only have cats, dogs and flying rats here

Btw, I love the last photo very, very much.

I love this kind of photo. Inspiring work.

Everybody loves the flying rat!

The last one is really great. The other two are nice as well, you should do a series documenting the life near the beach.

Thanks Korry, Don, and vlad.
The bear was just discarded on the beach. I picked it up and set it at a more suitable angle.
Sometimes the inspiration is all around . Other times nothing. I have a lot of nothing shots.

I believe we all have quite a lot of nothing shots

P.S.
from my humble experience, I would say that the bear is actually a frog

That is a very loved frog there, we have the same one. I really like the first pic. LOVE the texture of the fur.

I love the first one, reminds me of the evil plotting chipmunk I caught at the zoo a while back! I swear, that's how I photographed him!

I bow to your superior knowledge ladies. I did think it a funny colour for a bear.
It's a long while since my childhood.
