Squirrel!!

Silly squirrel! He came over to the feeder and ate a little, then my hubby says, come look!  I guess the little critter was tired or too hot!! LOL He stayed like that for quite a while.
 When Hubby went outside he ran up to his escape route across the roof, and did this, hung from the gutter for a long time too. It was around 90 degees LOL
Squirrels are so funny. This is our resident Douglas squirrel. Hubby has now renamed it Flop. LOL
