Squirrel on the Move

 Opening my door,
I discovered this little guy
sitting so still. I was surprised
that he didn't jump down immediately
and head for the oak tree 
just behind him.



 but, no, here he stays... 
long enough for me to snap several shots.



 Now he's on the move...
moving closer to the 
stair railing. 



"I'm out of here!"
From here he leaped down on the snow
and disappeared into the
heretofore unseen snow tunnel!

Lucky YOU! All the squirrels around here are serious duck and cover artists.

Not sure what happened there but I just posted a comment on the wrong post. I meant to say that if I'd got these squirrel pictures I'd have been really chuffed.

I get such a kick out of watching the squirrels. They are amazing little creatures.
Happy almost weekend.
Your blogging sister, Connie :)

GB, since I monitor comments, I deleted your other comment. I seldom have squirrels come onto my deck, unline youngest son whose deck was always cluttered with the leavings of whatever the squrrels ate. In his newer home, he has no problems like that.
cheers!

He is a sweetie. Good of him to stay so you could take his pictures. I wish you a great weeekend!
He was waiting for peanuts. Or blackoil sunflower seeds!

Waiting to see if you would feed him. They are intelligent little creatures. One used to come sit on my shoulder when I was on patio with peanuts. He would snatch one and run.

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Quirky Poem

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
