This is not one of my favorite critters, but was too cute in the garden setting not to photograph.

I feel the same way Fleur. I'm glad you took the photo though. It makes a beautiful banner.

Oh, too cute for words! And a lovely banner.

Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

What a delightful photo! I just love the composition, the tinge of purple, the covering of the apple with the squirrel showing how important food is in the winter.

Beautiful picture!

We have no squirrels here, so we find them cute and do not consider them a garden enemy (like rabbits grrrr)

What a warm response on my banner on this cold winter day. Thank you for the responses, thumbs up, and generous acorns. To Whitebeard's comment about the photo size. It took 31 slow moving takes to close in on the rascal, but it was so enthralled with the apple, it didn't notice me closing in. They all came out well, but here is the photo from which I cropped to fit the banner requirements.
