Penning Photography Daily

I spotted this squirrel in our Maple tree whcih sits at arm’s length outside our sunroom.

I could have opened the window and handed him a nut, if I didn’t know he’d bolt.

It was a cold and wet morning.

I got the distinct feeling that this fella was waiting it out.

Earlier in the winter, I tossed some walnuts out to him, or some other squirrel which looks like him. He had been tearing apart all the hedge apples which adorn our yard. You could see piles of ripped up hedge apples all around the yard. I figured a few handfuls of walnuts would be a welcome treat.

Spring and new seeds can’t come soon enough for this guy.

Me too.

Until then, we hunker down and wait through the moments of cold and wet. We’ll get through it.
