I am completely unable to resist taking baby Uinta Ground Squirrel photos. These babies are simply that appealing to me, no matter where I find them.<\/p>\n

\"BabyBaby Uinta Ground Squirrel in damp dirt \u2013 Nikon D500, f7.1, 1\/1600, ISO 400, Nikkor 500mm VR with 1.4x TC, natural light<\/span><\/p>\n

Last year, while showing my good friend Steve Creek<\/span><\/a> around some of my favorite locations in the Wasatch Mountains, we found this baby ground squirrel next to a damp dirt road.<\/p>\n

Both of us had a grand time photographing this baby and other Uinta Ground Squirrels that we found together.<\/p>\n

Birds are my primary subject, but I enjoy photographing practically everything I find in nature. Steve is primarily a wildlife photographer, yet he also enjoys photographing what he finds in nature.<\/p>\n

After all, what is there not to enjoy about nature? I sure love it all.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
