Bookended by squirrels

My walk this morning began and ended with squirrels.  On the way to the reserve I saw - and heard - a squirrel shrieking from the apex of the old Barn Store roof, and just I was leaving the reserve to come home a squirrel shot across infront of me and froze to the bottom of a tree trunk pretending to be a knot in the wood.  The birds, on the other hand, were entirely absent.  So here are the squirrels!

Nothing else much to report, but it's still the morning, I'm posting early, so if I have any exciting adventures this afternoon, I'll add them below ;)))

Enjoy the rest of your day and your evening  xx
