Geert shared withBored Pandathat it all started with a fox and then a bird that visited his garden. “I started to create scenes for them, placed food, and captured photos of them. When they left, the squirrels came, and they have returned almost daily for almost 11 years now.”

“Once, while repairing my chimney, one of my squirrel friends used the ladder and visited me on the roof. I always have food in my pockets. I did a photo shoot once while climbing a tree with squirrels following me. I never know when they’ll come or if they’ll do what I’m looking for.”

“I have built a studio connected to the forest. In this studio, I have a large table where I create scenes. Here, I have a lot of wires in the air attached to little buckets with food. I can place these buckets exactly where I hope to capture the squirrels.”
