Love the squirrel hugging the branch. He almost appears to be trying to get home after a wild party. :) Very nice images.

Sharon said...

Looks like you have a real tree hugger there! :-)

Thanks for stopping by one and all.

Sharon, the tree hugger had just been chased up the tree by my pups. LOL

John @ Beans and I on the Loose said...

Yes, I have to agree the squirrel hugging the branch is a good one. You wouldn't know he had just been terrorized by the dogs. He looks so at peace.

Great shots you captured here. Have to admit the squirrel one is adorable even though they make me crazy in my gardens.

Beautiful photos, but my favorite is the "tree-hugger" as Sharon called the squirrel. Super!

Nice shots. My backyard is pretty busy, too. The bird feeder is emptied in a day. I need more, or bigger. Your header is really nice!

Great captures! I started to tear up when I saw the first one, though. We are going to miss our tree that was cut down.

Looks like that squirrel is taking a rest! They don't seem to do that here in my yard! Great pics, especially the cardinal!
