The Squirrel and Her Sunflower Picnic

A bushy-tailed squirrel sits proudly on top of a giant sunflower, her tiny paws clutched around a secret snack. Pointy ears perk up, and one shiny eye watches the world, making sure nobody sneaks up while she munches. Wide leaves frame her round body, and her fluffy tail curls high like a question mark in the air.

Sunflower petals surround her like a soft yellow pillow, every petal zig-zagging out from the middle where her paw rests. Thick stems and big leafy shapes crisscross behind her, building a leafy forest just for squirrel picnics. Today, she looks calm and busy, nibbling away as sunlight sparkles all around.

Fun Fact!

This ground squirrel has special chemicals in its blood that act like antifreeze to protect it from freezing solid.
