Columbian Ground Squirrel, Canada
The Columbian ground squirrel can be found in Canada in eastern British Columbia and Western Alberta. In the United States, it can be found in eastern Oregon and Washington, northern Idaho and western Montana.
This friendly fellow was photographed in Mount Revelstoke National Park, British Columbia, Canada. We are on top of Mt. Revelstoke after an 18 mile drive up to a very beautiful Alpine setting. There are many trails, small lakes and meadows full of wildflowers in full bloom in August. A must see if you are in the area.
Have a Great Day
