So this dude!
I noticed this squirrel just sitting atop one of my deck posts, contently eating an acorn, without a care or worry.
All in all not that unusual, except the post is some 20 feet tall. Yes it's a squirrel and they perform at heights far greater, so it's not the height that surprised me but rather that there isn't a tree with 50 feet of my deck and there is nothing on my deck that would remotely even attract any critter. Just SO weird to me.
How and why this dude chose this spot to hang out and snack puzzles me. Perhaps, a dare or lost a bet to the other squirrels maybe?!
A wide shot pic to show just how odd a spot this was -
Of course I bolted out the slider, once I had taken my pics, to scare the dude and see what it's escape plan was. Well, I swear that SOB was just toying with me sitting up there and pretty sure he flipped me off before calming and easily crawling down the outside of the post, under the fence and off it went. Also, if I'm not mistaken, the dude was smirking the whole time too.
Curses...
