I know! I had a family of 4 living in my attic. I spent $350 to get rid of them.

On a mailing-list I belong to, they're discussing if this is real or photoshopped. I say it's real. If it was photoshopped they did a really good job cloning around the fur and the whiskers. If a remote was used I guess the camera could autofocus on the squirrel the last instant it popped up. Besides, the light falling on the squirrel and the couple looks the same. Any idea?

If you read the story, they have a remote for the camera, so they kept taking pictures after the squirrel popped up.
