Squirrel nutjob

AN acrobatic red squirrel does some crazy splits as he climbs up purple loosestrife flowers in a bid to reach some peanuts.

Photographer Geert Weggen, 48, snapped the rodent’s impressively nimble display in Bispgarden, in his native Sweden.

Geert, known for capturing squirrels in funny poses, uses a mini outdoor studio with an open roof attached to his home.
