Squirrel in the Whispering Pine Tree
Nestled on a sturdy branch, a curious squirrel enjoys the gentle breeze high above the ground. It keeps an eye on its favorite pine cone snack, while the tree’s long needles catch beams of soft morning light. Clouds swirl lazily in the sky, turning the day into a peaceful woodland moment. What colors will you give this playful scene?
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.

COLORING TIPS
Use light brown or gray for the squirrel’s fur, adding gentle shading for a soft effect. Try layering greens for the pine needles and experiment with adding tiny dots or lines for texture. The swirling clouds can be left white or filled with gentle blue or pastel hues. Don’t forget some warm browns for the tree bark and a bright pop of color for the pine cone.
