Lazy Afternoon by the Forest Stream

A bushy-tailed squirrel sprawls on a giant rock, her head propped up with one paw as she grins at the world. Wisps of grass poke through the cracks beneath her belly, and her fluffy tail curls high above her back, almost as big as she is. Behind her, trees stretch their leafy arms to the sky, casting gentle shadows over the winding stream that snakes through the woods.

Sunlight peeks through the branches and scatters across the forest floor. The squirrel’s bright eyes shine as she enjoys her peaceful break, ears perked for any new sounds. Smooth stones dot the stream nearby, and tufts of grass wave in the breeze, turning the scene into a quiet woodland story.
