A Year in Nutshell: How quickly a year goes by! Here's a collection of unforgettable moments with my squirrel and bird friends.

First guest in the outdoor studio: a squirrel with charm to spare. 🐿️✨
Bright eyes, perfect manners, and enough charisma to carry an entire photoshoot.
The second guest... not so much. 😄

Shot with Insta360 X4, my new Go Ultra and two Ace Pro 2’s with macro lenses.

Don’t let that innocent face fool you. 🐿️🌰
This squirrel will beg, borrow, and steal your last nut if given half a chance.
Those big eyes and that sweet expression are all part of a highly effective snack-acquisition strategy.
Proceed with caution.

Squirrels don't have great eyesight up close. 🐿️🌰
The nut was right in front of her, yet she practically had to bump into it before realizing it was there.
Once discovered, though, it was very much appreciated.
A little surprise gift is still a gift, even when you accidentally walk into it first.

“Hey there, friend!” 🐿️✨
Squirrel is always happy to see you.
A quick visit, a curious look, and a cheerful little face that somehow makes the day a bit brighter.
Some regulars never fail to bring good vibes. 🌰

It’s a peaceful summer day in the forest. ☀️🐿️🐦
The squirrels and birds are getting along, everyone enjoying the buffet and the sunshine.
Well, not everyone.
Then this bulldozer of a pigeon shows up and starts throwing his weight around, marching through the crowd like he owns the place.
Peace was nice while it lasted. 🌰

Squirrel taking shelter in the greenery. 🐿️🌿
A quiet hideaway among the leaves, away from the busy buffet and the ever-curious birds.
Sometimes the best place to be is tucked away in a little patch of green, enjoying a moment of peace. 🌰

These birds are hip and swinging! 🐦🎵
This video was captured fully automated with a Kiwibit Beako birdfeeder camera and a Dwarflab 3. While the Dwarflab's main purpose is capturing galaxies far, far away, it can also be used as a wildlife camera, recording birds and animals by itself in beautiful 4K. 📸✨

The music may drive some of you crazy, and for that I apologize. 😄 I never thought I'd use this track, but it somehow fit perfectly. It also struck a core memory of watching black-and-white cartoons with my kids thirty years ago.

Birds featured in the video: redstart, hooded crow, blackbird, nuthatch, blue tit, great tit, great spotted woodpecker, and greenfinch.

Posing schmosing. Squirrel reassures me he’ll attend to my needs shortly. 🐿️📸
Right after he finishes inspecting the snacks, surveying the buffet, and handling several urgent squirrel matters.
The photographer will just have to wait.

Squirrel inspects my camera gear before posing for a picture. 🐿️📸
A thorough examination, a few suspicious glances, and what appears to be a complete quality-control check.
Only after approving the equipment does the model agree to begin the photoshoot. 🌰

@R23373R It’s been documented in the Bronze age, my guess it’s even further back than that.

[Squirrels by Fotoscenen @jmannen77]

Swedes have been celebrating Midsummer for thousands of years, though these traditions only go back some 700 years. Glad midsommar!

[Squirrels by Fotoscenen @jmannen77]

@JonatanLovkvist Yes this is true, celebrating Midsummer is documented in the Bronze age, my guess is it goes back even further.

“Listen, you distract him, and I’ll sneak up and steal his nuts. We’ll split the loot.” 🐿️🐦🌰
Squirrel appears to be coordinating a highly sophisticated buffet heist.
The plan has several flaws, most notably that the snacks are free.
But you have to admire the ambition.

“Stand up straight, little squirrel, and relax.” 🐿️📸
Modelling is a tricky business.
There's posture to think about, lighting to check, and somehow still finding time to look adorable.
It's a demanding profession, but this little model is doing just fine. 🌰

Form an orderly queue, little birds. 🐦🌰
The snacks in my hand will be enough for everyone.
No need for the frantic wing-flapping, surprise landings, or attempts to skip the line.
A little patience goes a long way at the buffet.

Snacking or posing? 🐿️📸🌰
Squirrel can’t quite decide.
One moment he's focused on the buffet, the next he's serving perfect model poses for the camera.
Why choose when you can do both?

Squirrel realizing there are enough snacks for everyone. 🐿️🐦🌰
The birds can stop by, the buffet can stay busy, and nobody has to rush.
A rare moment of woodland harmony, where sharing beats squabbling and everyone leaves with a full belly.

“Dear sir, would you kindly serve up some more walnuts?” 🐿️🌰
Squirrel is bringing a whole new level of politeness to the buffet today.
No demanding looks, no dramatic pleading. Just impeccable manners and a hopeful smile.
It's a surprisingly persuasive strategy.

Squirrel acting completely nonchalant. 🐿️🌰
Cool, calm, collected, pretending nothing in the world could possibly bother him.
Then a tiny bird flutters too close and he practically jumps sideways out of the frame. 🐦💨
Confidence: restored. Dignity: still under investigation.

“I know you’re up to something, little squirrel... and I don’t like the look of it.” 🐿️👀🌰
That suspicious pause, that sideways glance, that very deliberate attempt to look innocent.
Whatever the plan is, it almost certainly involves snacks.
