Is this squirrel praying or preaching for something?

  This incredible photo captured the divine moment a hungry squirrel looked to the heavens for his next meal.

  The once in a lifetime snap was taken by Martin Patten who witnessed the spiritual scene at The British Wildlife Centre in Surrey.

  

  The 47-year-old from Watford was on a trip with other budding amateur photographers when he spotted the squirrel's bizarre behaviour.

  The father-of-one said he knew immediately that it would make for a great picture.

  He said: ‘When I first saw the squirrel it was very excitable running around everywhere sniffing out food.

  ‘Someone I was with held a nut up in the air and he just reached up for it straight away.

  

  Got it! Moments later the squirrel enjoys his nut

  

  Thanks, God! Again, the squirrel looks skywards a possible gesture of gratitude after getting a nut to eat

  
  

  He stayed there for a good thirty seconds, it was just like he was pleading with her.

  ‘I realised straight away that it would be a great picture opportunity as it was such a comedy moment.

  ‘It was just one of those rare occasions, something you don't get to see very often.’

  I have an affinity for certain types of furry animals so I will donate 10% of my measly pay to this preaching squirrel if he owns a church at a park near to my place.

  Don't worry, your 10% will be use to buy crunchy nuts and not promoting one's self ego

  Hi.., I like the first photo very much. As now a days many advertisements are doing with the squriells. Squriells are becoming more popular.

  It could have been a video, and only that frame is frozen.

  Or a burst of multiple shots, and only that is used.
