That’s nuts – Squirrel spots his reflection while drinking from lake

By Kristiana Hall

This squirrel got the shock of his life after catching his reflection in crystal clear waters.

Perfectly framed, the squirrel could be stood in front of a mirror as he takes a long drink on the warm spring day in Overijssel, Netherlands, last month.

Dick Van Duijn, 33, a fish shop owner from the area managed to take the nifty shot.

Dick said: “I took this picture which shows a drinking squirrel spotting his reflection from the side.

“I was hoping to capture a drinking squirrel from the front on a very early and warm day in February.

“And I was lucky as the squirrel chose to drink in the right place – I felt very happy I got the shot.”
