Mark Mayall used his remote wildlife camera to capture these red squirrel photos over the course of a week.  Mark explains, "I found a blowdown in a small hollow that has the biggest midden of pine cone scales I've ever seen, two feet deep in places.  In early April I had seen fisher tracks in the snow nearby, I was hopeful that I would get some shots of that but no dice.  The squirrel did of course show up in dozens of shots."
