Today we in the States celebrate Labor Day. A day for most of us to take the day off from work and relax. A pleasant warm, humid, and sunny day.
It would seem that even the squirrels are recognizing our National Holiday. This little fellow is taking a siesta in the eve of our neighbor's shed.
Hot and humid, every critter is relaxing in the shade today.
Sammy Squirrel joined us on our deck for an afternoon in the sun. An afternoon snack of peanuts and gin and tonics. Sammy scored a peanut that I had dropped. Friendly little fellow. Of course our fearless watchdog, Winston was napping in the house while his deck was overrun with squirrels.
I hope you are enjoying your day off.
That squirrel is too cute, Dusty. I admire any photographer who can capture animals. Wait, that didn't sound right... oh heck, you know what I mean!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots!
Delightful shots!
ReplyDeleteThe squirrel seems very tame and unconcerned but the dog is my favourite..

Looks like that squirrel is well fed! He's so cute...as is the pup. Hope you have a nice, relaxing day...
ReplyDeleteThat last squirret looks big enough to grab that gin and tonic right out of your hand. Watch it!

Great photos. Warm late summer days are a joy.

ReplyDeleteSorry about the private blog thing. I was putting up my new look blog and was fiddling around. Come over and check it out! :)
Neat pictures, did Sammy talk to you?
ReplyDeleteOh my....I am in LOVE with Winston! And Sammy is a cutie too! He looks like he's saying something to you in the last shot :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, Rob! Love those squirrels, even as they're running through my attic. Cute little buggers.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of squirrel shots and of course I adore the Westie.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I love the squirrel peeking out, but then he's actually laying down! Very cute. (the little pests) I must rememeber how destructive they are! Thats what my boss always tells me because they chew the apartment decks up, and I'm the Manager here so it is then my problem. But sooo cute! (Shhhh...dont tell I said so...)
