Tree Hugger

The view is so pretty from my own, personal little observation deck!

The view is so pretty from my own, personal little observation deck!

For about the first half hour of my most recent visit to the local park four weeks ago, it seemed like the day was going to be a dud.  I didn’t encounter many squirrels, and the few sqturday squirrel logoI did cross paths with didn’t provide me with many photographic opportunities.  My patience, however, was amply rewarded… and that should be apparent by the fact that this is the fourth straight week I’ve used a photo from that morning in my Saturday Squirrel feature, and I may continue to dip into that album for several weeks to come!

Just look at this little cutie perched as pretty as can be on that small stump of a branch protruding from the trunk of a tree.  That’s probably a good 20-30 feet off the ground, yet squirrels aren’t going to get vertigo looking down from even the highest of heights.  He’s probably leaped from tree to tree at much, much higher elevation than where he’s sitting now.  Thanks for taking the time from your busy day to strike an adorable pose for me, fella!  You get to be this week’s Saturday Squirrel!

Really!?!?  OMG!  What do I win!?!?

Really!?!? OMG! What do I win!?!?

The love and adoration of all of my readers, that’s what!

Have a wonderful Fall weekend everyone!

    This little tree hugger definitely wins my love and adoration. What a cutie! I love the way squirrels look at us with so much curiosity like this one is. Sometimes I think they like watching us almost as much as we like watching them. Although while we’re marveling at how amazing they are, they’re probably marveling at how helpless we are without any claws to climb trees!

    • LOL! I’m sure I’ve had all kinds of crazy squirrel thoughts directed at me. Who is this dumbass with that weird black box over his face, and why is he chasing me around this tree? They can definitely flash some weird expressions, though!

        I’m sure I made Shorty think something like “Even human chicks can’t keep their paws off my tail!” I couldn’t help myself, I reached out and touched it. He jumped away but didn’t bite me.

  6. Cute indeed. Although my brain thinks that that short branch looks like the tree has an erection…
