“The best things in life are often waiting for you at the exit ramp of your comfort zone.” K. Salmansohn

This squirrel has become quite obsessed with the quail bird feeder. He hasn’t gotten his courage up enough to reach over and touch the tray, though. He is fun to watch! I’m going to say this is a May word - Pet - I can say he’s my pet, right? I feed him and he drinks from my bird bath. Lol.

Nice quote (and picture of course).

[Nicole Campbell]

That is a big stretch

[Babs]

He is quite athletic.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great timing for that great stretch -- good one Lou Ann - fav

He's probably had too many bad experiences. Wonderful shot.

[Diana]

How wonderful, I would also not like to risk it ;-)

[Pat Knowles]

[Maggiemae]

They can stretch out an awful lot, can't they!

[Gayle]

Oh, my goodness! That's hilarious! I'm really surprised he hasn't jumped over onto the feeder yet. Perfect timing for this shot! :-)

[Michelle]

How cute 😊

[Carole Sandford]

A great capture & it kind of shows his cheeky personality!

[Karly]

Delightful - I love how he is stretched out! I hope he works up the courage to move forward:)

The funny thing is that I have safflower seeds in that feeder, squirrels don’t even like those seeds. I don’t know what he’s really thinking, he will be so disappointed when he finally gets over there! Ha!

[Taffy]

Delightful!! Such a long stretch to get to the feeder.
