A man who is nuts about squirrels has captured some dinosaur action with the critters.

Niki Colemont, 34, says he has been spent 3,200 hours photographing red squirrels.

The Belgium-based nature photographer puts out tasty treats and lets them interact with props.

His latest series is based on his long-time love of dinosaurs.

Niki, from Diepenbeek, explains: “As a child, I was always playing with dinosaurs and I grew up with them, I had inflatable dinosaurs to ride on and an Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs.

“I was really addicted to dinos in my childhood and then Steven Spielberg came with his Jurassic Park movies.

“I thought it was a great idea to bring my love for squirrels and dinosaurs together in a themed series and to pay a tribute to Jurassic Park.”
