Throwing their arms up in the air, these energetic squirrels play a game of ball with a walnut. Pictured in a frosty forest with their little paws dusted with snow, the pair of squirrels reach for and pass around the nut.

The 30-year-old, of Voronezh, Russia, says: “I started taking pictures of squirrels in the woods two months ago.
