Squirrels go nuts for a game of football in the snow
THIS game is nuts...
The two squirrels play in the snow
Two cheeky red squirrels defy the cold in their frosty grey winter coats to play in the harsh Russian woodland.
The endearing animals with their rusty ear tufts were photographed passing a walnut to each other as they turned their quest to find food in a freezing forest into an impromptu game.
Russian engineer Vadim Trunov snapped the pair in the Voronezh region of Russia, close to the border with Ukraine.
