I struggle with wildlife photograph so I try to practice it whenever the opportunity presents itself. I was really happy to get this panning shot mid jump. The head isn't in focus, and pales in comparison to Wendy's amazing trained squirrels, but I still like it.

Love that he's parallel to the top of the fence.

Aah, the butts in focus, so no worries! LOL! I have a hard time getting running, leaping animals as well.

His butt is in focus LOL! Definitely need a high shutter speed with these thieves.

Wow! Great capture. One of those photos you can't make every day (unless you have a squirrel colony nearby).

I like the "I got mine!" sorta look and feel, both of the squirrel and the capture itself!

These buggers move so fast, it sure is hard to get them sharp. It seems you need about 1/500 or 1/1000 of second to really have a chance to get them sharp in focus.

The other option is to hire Wendy's squirrels, she sedates them from what I have read....

It's a very good action shot, especially for panning, in my book. I would be very pleased, too.

Pretty good action shot. I can never get those! I think the squirrel is actually running away from Wendy's (the squirrel Paparazzi)
