Under the Weather

We had a sudden huge snow squall. The squirrels didn't care and continued foraging in the snow. Between the snow and the wind I could not have a clearer image. The result reminds me an illustration for a children book.

yes I see your illustration , I tell willow and Alfie (our grandchildren) that all squirrels are called Cyril ...Cyril Squirrell !

Good heavens - they sure are tough little critters..

[Ann H. LeFevre]

The weather alert kept going off today saying we were going to get one too- but I guess it blew north and up to you. It always amazes us that the squirrels and other animals can tell where there's food in the snow. good shot!

This is very special, hopefully they can retire to their dens soon.

It does have the feeling of an illustration as opposed to a photo.

[Shutterbug]

Tough little guy that squirrel.

[Yao RL]

I like the effect, like an contemporary ink painting.

Oh my, poor squirrel. Great catch, though.

[Kate]

Squirrels skitter about so much that I guess they can stay warm in such weather

[Margaret Brown]

🤣🤣 poor thing!

[Joy's Focus]

So cute! It does look like artwork for a children's book

We also had a snowstorm. But I guess the squirrels didn't get the weather alert. Great shot.
