Posing For The Camera

Today's squirrel week post is from when my new little friend, the fox squirrel, was up on another branch eating his second of three acorns. He decided to make it entertaining by giving me a few dramatic poses while he was enjoying his meal.

I love the way his cheeks are so puffy this time of year. I don't think he has more acorn stuffed in there. That's all him. He's a chubby one. He's demonstrating his technique of stuffing himself for the winter. He should have a nice layer of insulation the way he's scarfing down those acorns.

here he is trying his best to look into the camera while still eating his food. That looks kind of difficult. He's eating, perching on that branch, and watching the camera all at the same time. Life is hard when you're a star.

Here's my little squirrel buddy showing off his talent by doing his best Dracula impression. He tried his best to look sinister the way he was hiding there behind his hands, but it just didn't work as well without the cape.

He finally decided to take a break from his lunch and just look into the camera. That's a great pose he was doing while showing off his favorite food. He deserves a lot of credit for being able to hold still for that long for me. I know he wanted to get right back to his acorn.

SAY CHEESE! Here's my new little friend giving his best smile for the camera. He wasn't a shy one at all, was he? Actually, I think he might have been laughing at me. He probably was wondering why I was standing in the middle of the forest wearing those fake mouse ears. It was obviously so I could get him to laugh like that.

That's it for today. I'll be back tomorrow with something new for squirrel week!
