Taken alone I'd think the one on the left was
making a diving catch of a ball, but with the
other I think left-squirrel just gave
right-squirrel a big push to set him spinning
around the post.
Notice how their ears are back. I didn't
know they could do that until I looked at
some pictures of mine chasing each other.
Good timing and a fast camera. You can click
on "more properties" under the
"additional information" link at
right to see what she used -- a 70-300 mm
zoom lens and 1/2000 second shutter speed.
My pictures of squirrels chasing each other
come out blurred at 1/500 second.
