al fresco dandelion crunch.....

.. a squirrel in the sunshine in the park in Bath

It was sunny here yesterday; today, in typical English fashion, it's pouring with rain which is a shame as we are visiting friends and had planned a trip to Poole Harbour.

Wishing you all a relaxing weekend.
Wonderful capture, very cool ! So cute.

Very cute shot. We don't have these little creatures here, but I saw plenty in America. They are very hard to get a shot of, they are so fast.

Lovely cute creature

Very nice.

Isn't he just a sweetie....you can say all you like about squirrels being pests but we feed them....how could you chase them off?

Nice shot. He seems to be really enjoying his meal.

Same weather here too, yesterday it was 30 degrees and really sunny and today it is 20 degrees bucketing down with rain and thunderstorms. Typical Anzac Day. Brightened up later today though but still cold.

What a shame for Anzac Day, Babs. We just came home on the Mway: loads of traffic, slow-moving, 40mph signs, surface water signs, pouring with rain - nice to be indoors!

A lovely shot of this little fella he seems quite tiny or is the grass long? Wet day here too.
April 25th, 2014  
Great capture, he's eating healthy!

Thanks for all your comment & the favs and especially those who identified the dandelion leaf - I wasn't sure if it was but have now re-named the pic slightly! He/she was just a small squirrel and was being chased by a small child whom I bossily told 'Stand still' (don't think her mother was in earshot!
