A few birds were eating seeds along the North Pond pathway and along came this Squirrel. The seeds were birdseed, so smaller than would aid his search for winter foods to store.

I regularly take breaks in my walks to soak in the atmosphere; to see things I might not if I kept up a pace the entire walk. And it was worth the pause this morning. Copyright 2025 Pamela BreitbergIt didn’t take long for the Squirrel to return home. As a painter, I was intrigued by the contrast between the wrinkly, old-looking, tree trunk and the soft furry Squirrel’s tail. Copyright 2025 Pamela BreitbergI almost got the feeling he enjoyed teasing me and keeping me still to watch his antics.

Most squirrels, in my experience, quickly hide on the far side of the tree when I walk. Photo ops are rare; so i treasure that morning’s experience. Copyright 2025 Pamela Breitberg
