Squirrel shots are simply nuts

Keen photographer Max Ellis, 52, set up a hilarious scene in his back garden in Teddington, southwest London, where squirrels appear to be lifting real 2kg weights hung on fishing line.

He uses treats for the squirrels to tempt them in before patiently waiting for the exact moment to get his shot.

Max works at a strength gym and does a lot of these training routines.

He originally started creating the scenes for his son hoping the critters doing their best Arnold Schwarzenegger impression would amuse him.
