Nut Finder in the Autumn Leaves

A fluffy squirrel pokes his nose to the ground, eyes wide and paws busy, searching for his hidden snack. Around him, crunchy maple leaves tumble down, some big, some small, all crinkly and ready to be colored. His huge bushy tail curls in a perfect swirl behind him.

Every whisker stands out as he spots the shiny acorn nestled in the dirt. The leaves scatter all over the forest floor, making a patchwork under his feet. That hopeful look in his eye says he’s finally remembered his special hiding spot.
