The Squirrels Go Marching, One By One


Bookmark and Share


Early this morning I looked out the window and observed the family of grey squirrels going about their morning forage. One ran by with what appeared to be a Ritz cracker in his jaws. I guess he got his morning treat from one of the residents. I simply wasn't fast enough with the camera to get a snapshot. Here's one of his siblings, sans cracker.

Winter really has arrived and tonight it will go to -5F or so. Brrr!



It's snowing lightly but will get much colder tonight with approximately 1 inch of snow.
