A Eurasian red squirrel in its dark winter coat clings to the rough bark of a pine trunk, peering cautiously from behind the tree against a softly blurred snowy background.

I have been returning to Arosa several times this season, slowly walking the same path, capturing some of the unique trust the local animals show toward wanderers.

Because heavy snow was accumulating on the tall spruce trees, this weekend felt much quieter, limiting encounters. Few bird songs broke the silence.

Although it is not uncommon to see squirrels this close, each moment still feels special
