Squirrel Greets the Morning Sun

A bushy-tailed squirrel balances on a sturdy branch, keeping his nose pointed toward the rising sun. His round eyes stay wide, ready to spot breakfast down below or another friend up high. Smooth lines shape his tiny paws as they grip the bark, and his puffy tail rises behind him like a big question mark.

Stretching out in front of him, sunlight spills over the curve of the earth, with neat rays shining up, making the whole branch glow. Bare twigs reach for the sky, hinting that the air feels fresh and crisp. It looks like a peaceful morning in the woods, with this squirrel sitting right where he belongs.

Fun Fact!

A squirrel will often flick its tail over its head to signal to a predator, like a snake, that the squirrel has seen it and is ready to escape.
