The Red Squirrel and the Chickadee

This is the first day I have seen the red squirrel
up close at our bird feeders. This little squirrel
is so fast and luckily he or she didn't see me
hiding behind my camera in the window.

What a treat to see the chickadee pausing
or posing with the red squirrel long just
enough for me to take a photo!

Isn't it interesting how creatures instinctively know which are dangerous and which are not?

Marnie, Jill and Karen,
We seem to have many red squirrels in our yard! Fascinating to watch.
