Description


I caught this family of ground squirrels catching the last rays of the day. The sun set shortly after I took this pic and they slowly went into their burrow for the night! The days were extremely hot but the nights in the desert get really cold! Snapped in the Kgalagadi last year! Thank you for popping and and for your kind comments and favs on my last upload. Carin xx

I feel like going underground myself here, it is extremely hot here today. Excellent image Carin. Now this begs the question, did you shoot that sunset?

Very interesting capture. While I hope that they all survive, it is known that Mother Nature does not curry favorites

they look cute enough to take home, but then the garden would be "toast" I guess.
