A Squirrel's Prayer by olivetreeann

A Squirrel's Prayer

Dear Lord, Please let the lady who throws the peanuts out put down the camera and bring me some peanuts. I promise, I'll never climb on her birdfeeder again! Amen.

Buster has been really hungry this week! Winter must be coming early this year. Perish the thought!
Cute shot

There is such a sweet expression on his face. He clearly trusts you.

OMG - what a cute shot, Ann! Love the lighting on him! He looks like he's hoping he gets lots and lots of peanuts!! Have to fav this one cuz it is too cute and a great shot.

He looks like a little angel which just goes to show that appearances are deceiving!

i'm not ignoring your postings. i'll get to it later on in the week. i'm so far behind i don't know what to do short of filing for a week-long vacation!

If Buster promised you that, he's telling a lie!! I put food out for the squirrels and they eat the bird food first and then theirs!! But how can you resist them when they put their little hands together and plead with you with those big brown eyes and fuzzy tails?? I'm a sap for them and I don't care!! Love the lighting!! Throw some extras out for Buster from em ok? FAV

There a lots of signs of an early Winter including squirrels busily hiding away their peanuts for the long Winter month ahead. a really nice shot of Buster. the beautiful light on him makes him look a good guy. is he the only one coming to visit?
September 12th, 2014  
How can you resist LOL, he looks famished
September 12th, 2014  
@bruni Thanks Bruni! No, actually there are two others, but Buster has made it plain to them that his peanuts are off limits. So funny to watch him chase them away from the deck.
@digitalrn Thanks Rick! He reminds me of the boys when they'd have a snack equal to a meal and then come in the kitchen 15 minutes later and say, "I'm hungry, when's dinner?" !!!
September 12th, 2014  
@bruni Forgot to say thanks for the fav too!
September 12th, 2014  
Great capture, and I love the caption. Goes perfectly with the squirrel's expression. FAV
