What kind of scenery do you see out of the window at home? High-rise buildings or busy traffic? No matter which kind of scenery you see, it will definitely not make you feel happy and have a stress-relieving effect like the one I am going to introduce today. 100%; This rare window view comes from the backyard of Geert Weggen, a Dutch photographer living in Sweden. The 46-year-old is a carpenter himself. He uses wood to make many mini toys and uses local materials to match red berries. , squirrel cones and other fruits, he set up an "outdoor photo studio" one meter away from his backyard window to capture cute squirrels foraging for food.
Everyone knows that squirrels are very alert animals and will run away as soon as a stranger approaches. It is not easy to capture their cute life dynamics, but it is easy in the squirrel paradise created by Geert Weggen. You can take photos of squirrels eating and playing.
Shocking! You even secretly photographed me drinking water~
Huh? This hat seems a bit too big (Editor: It’s actually a mini flower pot~)
Don't underestimate me, I'm a great woodcutter!
I also want to try what it feels like to be in a shell!
Look~ am I more delicate than a mouse?
As soon as fall comes, squirrels will begin to collect berries and seeds and store food in multiple places. In fact, they are not storing food to prepare for the winter; it is because they are too forgetful and often forget how much food they have stored. , and often can't find a storage place. Fortunately, the characteristic of storing them everywhere allows them to have granaries everywhere, so they don't have to worry about going hungry.
I need to boil water for cooking~ Do you want to count your share?
Squirrels are as curious as cats. As long as the props Weggen placed in the backyard are like: teapots, mushrooms, snowmen, toy cameras, etc., they will overturn them~ (Editor: This is simply their paradise )
Geert Weggen often rewards squirrels with walnuts or sunflower seeds, and develops an excellent photography rapport with them, taking interesting photos of their lives.
