Melissa Brandts and her husband were surprised to find a squirrel posing with them in a photo taken on holiday.
The couple had set the timer on their camera while posing at a lakeside in a national park in Canada.
Just as they were about to be captured on camera the cheeky squirrel popped up in the foreground and stole the show.
The picture was taken at the side of the stunning Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park, Canada.
Mrs Brandts said: "We had our camera set up on some rocks and were getting ready to take the picture when this curious little ground squirrel appeared, became intrigued with the sound of the focusing camera and popped right into our shot."
The picture was submitted to the website of America's National Geographic magazine.

It looks photo-shopped.
Saw this yesterday on Fark and couldn't stop laughing.

Eaten alive? Yeah, everybody has. Some deny it, but they’re lying.

I don't see how you can tell it is shopped.
Please check this one for me and let me know if it is shopped or if it is really mother and child. Thanks!

ROFL!!!
Thanks for the ping MG70, I started laughing at this photo and haven’t stopped since I looked at the other photos on the thread.
Tears were streaming down my face a moment ago! This has brightened my otherwise craptastic day.
