Columbian Ground Squirrel (Explore)
I composed this photograph while hiking in Alberta's Kananaskis Country. It is an image of a Columbian Ground Squirrel. These animals live in Western Canada and Northwestern United States. "They can dig and continue to live in their same burrow for several years and may never live elsewhere. They'll often even have certain chambers for specific purposes like a toilet chamber and a hibernation chamber. Year after year, they will work to make their burrows more comfortable and safer." (Travelhope.ca.) (This image will also be found in my Albums: "Favorite Wildlife Photographs Series," and "Favorite Photographs From 2022.")
