Default The Squirrel Ran Up The Tree ----

And out onto a limb with no good jumping spot to get away from me and my camera. LOL The squirrels around here are starting to hate my camera almost as much as my dogs do.

First he thought he'd just lay low and I'd go away---

I just can't hide

He ran out on this broken limb----

Stuck out here

And he realized he had no where to go----

Out on a limb

After that I felt sorry for him and went inside so he could run off. Enjoy.

Acknowledging the fact that their realy cute we need not overlook the fact that you made some great pictures. They should be on a wall somewhere.

Thanks for brighting the day

In one week, I'll be meeting Soleil and her Mom and Dad at a lovely retreat spot near Santa Cruz, CA. It's located in the Redwood forest. It has lots of squirrels that need to be sung to sleep at night. This is our squirrel song. Shirley, I'm wondering if you went out at night and sang them this song if they would be more cooperative during the day? What a cute series! It brought a smile..."whoa, oh, uh oh!"

Thanks Lindy. I don't think the neighbors want to hear me sing. They might run me out of the neighborhood.

Yes, but the squirrels might like it! Especially that song!

Then I'll have to give it a try. One of my dogs throws his head back and howls when I do try. It should be amusing for all concerned. LOL
