OR NOT! I was working on the dragon print from the last post and heard a scratching on my studio window. When I looked up, I saw this dastardly squirrel. He was actually stretching himself up, belly pressed against the glass peering in, but before I could get the camera to take a picture, he had settled down to rest on the sill. He didn’t move as I neared to take the photo from inside, but allowed me to take two shots before he dropped back down to the patio.
This is pretty nervy of him, I think, given the species bad reputation around here. It may be all out war again. And lest you think I am exaggerating or over-reacting, just take a look at this. I am not kidding. This was John’s truck a couple of years ago after the attention of an overzealous red squirrel. Evidently the soy based insulation around the gas line tasted pretty good. Need I say more on the situation?
