That's Gold, Pete!!!! -
The drawbacks of using a self-timer.

So much about the DOF Topic and exterior shots.

Too bad it's a fake since it's not DOF but simple blurring the background...
Makes it less funny somehow...But take Pete's post for example!
Now there's something... you can't unsee

Now there's something... you can't unseeAFAICT that shot with the squirrel isn't fake - it's been on the news, along with brief interviews with the photographers (The couple in the background).

Actually, it's not fake...the camera presumably autofocused when the squirrel popped up to investigate the whirring noise. Just Google squirrel banff.

As I know, photo cameras don't focus prior shooting when timer is active, instead the the person who place camera in position and trigger the timer makes the focus when pushing the button. So, that squirrel was there before the timer was started, or after the photo was taken (via Photoshop)
-
Or if it's like you say,it may even have been a remote control (and this case partly on purpose)
-
It could simply be the result of a common self-timer fault: standing/crouching right in front of the camera while pressing the shutter button to activate the self-timer, which of course results in the camera autofocusing on the "close" you rather than the "far" you once you've run back to your pose position. Besides, the fur looks a little too well masked to be Photoshopped.

"We had our camera set up on some rocks and were getting ready to take the picture when this curious little ground squirrel appeared, became intrigued with the sound of the focusing camera and popped right into our shot!" she wrote.
The ground squirrel became the focus of the picture as the couple faded into the background.
Jackson Brandts took a few more shots using a remote-control shutter.
