Still as a Stone

He caught me watching him and became still as a stone.  For several minutes he stayed in the same spot and made occasional, cautious movements as he intently watched my movements. Did he think that by staying so quiet and still I wouldn't see him?  It's good for him that I'm harmless- I only wanted to "shoot" him in action.  

I enjoy watching these little squirrel critters in my back yard, or anywhere else for that matter.   I know plenty of folks who detest squirrels because of the property damage they've caused to their homes.  I can understand that, I'd be angry too.  So far these have kept their distance from our home and porches.  Hopefully, it will remain that way.

Below is another one of our squirrel groupies.  I threw this one in today's post because I think he (or she) is cute.  

Have a great day everyone!  Thank you for stopping in!
