balancing...

...on a tree branch

but not allowing - me to get - too close

this is the - neighborhood squirrel - who romps around - charging back and forth - up and down the hills - in back of my house - never quite letting me - get too friendly with him - he always wants to - keep his distance - boundaries, you know - which i can respect - i do think he - looks a bit anemic - not as plump as - the park squirrels i - been encountering - those that get fed - by strangers every day - i believe this one - is having a tough time - finding food - but i see him frolicking - about with his - squirrel friends so i - think he'll be alright - and it'll all end up being...

a

happy day.....
