    I also took a quick video of him burying in the pine needles.



    Here's a picture of the Formby dunes, purely because I think it's gorgeous. We have some truly lovely, rugged coastline in this part of the country.



    And my spot-of-the-day: this is a Meadow Pipit hiding in the grasses.



    That's all, hope you enjoyed.

    Wow he is very pretty. We have a lot gray squirrels here in Pennsylvania. I think we also have some red but they are not as prominent. When I go to our park at lunch time I may see up to 10 or more gray ones. They are very busy and also will come up to your vehicle if they smell something tasty.

    What a beautiful color! The squirrels around here are a dull brownish-grey color.

    And the photos of the dunes and the Pipit are lovely. Thank you!
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Oh what a cute guy Our squirrels are also red but I don't think they have a white belly.
    And now you see black squirrels as well.
