Squirrel seeking safety in the nook of this tree.
Not a very good photo but squirrelly enough for me.

This squirrel stuck around for a couple of pictures
and then scurried quickly up the tree to join
its playmate that bolted as soon as I noticed them
frolicking around this tree.

This little squirrel was sitting about 15 feet from me
when I stopped on a trail. The only thing moving was
its tail in the wind. Even after I continued on my way
he/she continued to maintain its position.

stay away!

Sure does look like this squirrel wants my
grand dog to stay away.

This squirrel sat and ate for quite some time
while I snapped pictures. When it took off it ran up a
large tree with a squirrels nest. It was at that time
that I noticed a bunch of squirrels on the branches.

I'm pretty sure this group of squirrels got his attention
and called him back to the nest.
