I don’t care how photographer Max Ellis gets these squirrels to do this, these are some of the funniest photos I’ve seen in ages. Check out his blog Squirrelisimo! Apparently his series began when he was looking for subjects for a daily photo blog and noticed squirrels playing with items his family had left in the backyard. Check out the full results here.

 Let the magic commence.
