Squirrels can swim!

- you may be glad to know (unless you're me and then you'd have mixed feelings about this disclosure).
Laugh - I did!
This little chap was playing on the grass with some relative of his (another squirrel) when something startled them and he scarpered - straight into the pond!
He quickly scrambled out (much to my chagrin - I wasn't as quick with the camera) and spent the next five minutes shaking himself dry. That's the highlight of my day!
