Brief Visit from a Squirrel


I try to enjoy these final summer-like days. I was sitting in a lawn chair on the deck when a squirrel appeared in front of me. I managed to take his picture before he realized I was there and jumped away.

  15. Nice shot, it would have been just a blur if I had tried to capture it without warning.
