Ready, Set, Soar! Siberian Flying Squirrel Takes Photographer by Surprise!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible shot captured by Tony Wu in Hokkaido, Japan, we witness a thrilling encounter between man and nature. As the Siberian flying squirrel gracefully glides through the air directly over the photographer, it's hard not to envy their ability to effortlessly navigate the skies. With its sleek grey fur blending seamlessly into the winter woodland backdrop, this old world flying squirrel showcases its mastery of flight. Known as Pteromys volans orii in scientific terms, it belongs to a unique family of rodents that have adapted to life among treetops. As if straight out of a fantasy movie scene, this low-angle view captures both the beauty and biodiversity hotspot that is Hokkaido. The forest becomes an enchanting playground for these elusive creatures who call Asia home. The sheer joy on Tony Wu's face is evident as he witnesses this extraordinary moment unfold before his lens. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world filled with technology and gadgets galore, nothing quite compares to witnessing nature's wonders up close and personal. So next time you find yourself exploring woodlands or forests around the globe, keep your eyes peeled for these magnificent gliders soaring above. Who knows? You might just get lucky enough to capture your own breathtaking encounter with one of nature's most graceful aerial acrobats - the Siberian flying squirrel!
