Description

Squirrel faces amuse me, as they often have the most comical expressions. This fella appeared to be pondering his current elevation...and seemed rather dismayed by it!

(Disclaimer: No squirrels were asked to jump from high places during the making of this image.)

Good Morning Tess. I too spend time in the garden with squirrels, and here's my interpretation:

"WOWA - LOOK OUT! That's way farther to the next tree than I'm used to!"

Great shot - wonderful pov and focus.

Have a great weekend! #1187551
