Bushy-Tailed Squirrel and a Tasty Acorn

A squirrel sits close with his fluffy tail curled like a big question mark behind him. His little paws squeeze a giant acorn, holding it almost like a treasure. Each finger shows careful claws ready for cracking open the shell.

His black eye shines as if he’s caught a glimpse of something exciting. Ruffled fur sweeps all around his cheeks and chest, sticking up like a cozy winter coat. Whiskers point forward, just waiting for his next snack in the forest.

Fun Fact!

When a flying squirrel leaps from a tree, it spreads its legs out, and the patagium acts like a parachute or wingsuit, allowing it to glide long distances.
