Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: out of hibernation

This little native Richardson's Ground Squirrel (also incorrectly called a Gopher by most people) looked in a completely "wrong" environment when we saw it on March 29th. I hope s/he was able to find its burrow again. My photos of these little guys normally show bright green grass : ) Photographed down at Sikome, Fish Creek Park. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richardson's_ground_squirrel
