"I'm Cold"

 

This is the first squirrel that I have seen in the trees behind our roof deck for about a month since the deep cold hit here. He didn't look happy with the world and didn't stay out for long. It has warmed up a bit this week.

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!

His tail looks pretty droopy alright.

They are elusive this time of year.

I hope he found a warm place to snuggle into.

A tough Winter for them. Spotted one today when I was using my trekkrunner. It was eating bird food that my neighbour puts out for all the wildlife here. -21C expected tonight. With the wind chill factor added.

It is hard for me to image how the squirrels and birds endure the bitter cold of winter, but somehow they do. I've seen my backyard squirrels out foraging this past week, but few birds even though it has warmed up last week.

It must have been hungry.
