A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Ictidomys tridecemlineatus
A small ground squirrel, sandy yellow in color with thirteen alternate brown and whitish stripes on the back.
By the shores of Lake Michigan. These prefer open habitat such as meadows and prairie.
I got these photos by accident. I was at the top of Little Point Sable Lighthouse and saw something moving on the ground. I used my telephoto lense to see what it was. I guess taking pictures of squirrels from 100 feet in the air is actually effective.
