Hamsters at the Cementary

Hamasters and ground squirrels are probably my favorite rodents that I can find here in Austria. At a cementary in vienna I can get really close to them and taking pictures of them is really funny there. Their main time of activity is just before sunset and in the evening so it can be a bit challenging taking some pictures during the day. The later it gets the easier you can get some nice pictures of them. I usually look for their holes in the ground and lay down on the ground to wait for the hamsters to appear. This gives me the right angle to get some really nice pictures and it also gives the hamsters some time to adjust to my presence.

It was really nice watching the hamsterd doing their stuff, some of them felt so comfortable that I could take pictures of them cleaning their fur.
