Please? Cheese! Thanks Louise!!

Well, after over a year of trying and ending up a criminal, I can finally cross off taking a picture of a wild Charlie from my bucket list - except of course, my bucket will be an Orange Round Bucket Alien we all know as an ORBA. I'm so happy! I think Charlie was getting in the holiday mood and decided to be be nice and pose for me.

What happens when you eat a whole lot of nuts?

a fat squirrel in the same pose eating a nut

You get sort of chunky!

Never in my wildest dreams did I ever hope to get a picture of two squirrels at once!

zoomed in, the grey squirrel has a brownish colored face and dark eyes

A "tall, dark and handsome" Charlie. Should we arrange for him to meet Sugar Bush? I bet she'd like this piece of eye candy!

lmao iggy you did it!!!!!

Jim and I were looking out the window this morning while eating breakfast and squirrels were running around all over the place. I told Jim it was a shame Iggy couldn't be here and get a picture. And then you post this! Too funny.

These photos are precious, as are your words!
Hmmm...eye candy indeed. Could be the makings of a love story developing here.

Thank you for sharing this, and I hope you are feeling well today.
