Not sure how "wild" this guy is, but for the sake of cuteness I wanted to share it.

From a local Marsh Preserve. Followed him around for about 5 minutes as he wandered around. Finally he decided he needed a rest and posed for me for some shots.

Thanks for looking and any comment.

He was quite wild in his younger days. Now he is just cute. Good work.

Finally found the 'Bark-a-Lounger'? ;)

The beginner clicks the shutter and says "Let's see what I got." ... The experienced photographer thinks "How can I capture what I see?"

While he does look tired, I wouldn't be so sure. As a kid, I hunted a lot and it seemed they take this position when they are trying to blend into the branch. Like he knew he was being stalked and decided to lay low for a minute to see if you lost interest. But maybe I always hunted tired squirrels...

Great shot, by the way!

They are always like this on my fence cross bars when the air is hot and the metal is cold.

Great shot. It's just waiting to be found by an advertiser.

Interesting what Geoff said , could this be a way to cool down? (spreading it's body on something cool)
