Nut Snack Break Under the Old Tree

A bright-eyed squirrel perches on a wooden park bench, tail curled like a fluffy question mark, holding a nut with both tiny paws. His whiskers twitch and his round belly peeks out as he nibbles, keeping one eye on the world and one on his tasty snack. The bench sits beneath a sturdy tree, whose branches stretch out with leafy puffs overhead, casting gentle shade.

Patches of grass peek up around the bench legs, hinting at a park full of small surprises. Strong lines in the tree bark and the planks of the bench invite crayons to bring out their textures. Every bit of the scene waits for bold, bright colors from busy hands.

Fun Fact!

The Abert's squirrel has a special relationship with Ponderosa pine trees; this squirrel eats the tree's seeds, inner bark, and even uses the branches to build its nests.
