Lovely photo. You are clever. It's been very frosty here but so still and dry it hasn't felt too cold. Bit of a surprise. London winters tend to be so damp and raw. I have been walking to work through the frost. Very good for me I'm sure. And I even walked home again this evening. It won't last.
That was quick. I think it's a wonderful fragrance. Having a bath in it is very special but just for a change yesterday's bath was rose flavoured. Who knows what the winter will do next? I think we have rain coming. If it's very wet I shall be practical and take the bus to avoid getting wet knees. I hate it when my knees get wet.
He really is cute. I never was a squirrel fan before I got these feeders that prevent them from dumping the seed on the ground. Now I'm enjoying them! haha.
How cute! I wish I could send you my snow. It had just melted off and then we got another 3" last night. Plus, it's the fluffy kind which makes it hard to be outside walking around in. I cannot wait to get to Florida! lol.
Great photo! Bless it! He looks cold, but all he needs to do is wrap that bushy tail around himself. Look how full that thing is. Love that you caught him with snow on his nose.
Quite the poser, isn't he? Have you a name for him?
Great shot Betsy and you didn't even have to go outside in the cold ~ shame though because we might have been treated to another peek at those boots . . . lol
Yes . . . but you've got a lovely furnace to keep you warm all day ~ just think of the latent heat you have stored ~ so when you go into the cold for a few seconds you hardly notice a thing . . . don't forget we a nearer to Russia who kindly send us artic wind with a wicked chill factor . . . hahah
Well the Artic. Russia, Siberia ~ sometimes the wind changes direction . . . lol Now I wouldn't be surprised about Canada!!! . . . get frost bite just thinking about it . . haha.
Guess what! This isn't Cyril...this is the little one! He's grown some but I can tell the difference. His tail has little curls in it! haha. Yesterday he and Cyril were there together ...fun to watch.
Hi Betsy - ours are running around keeping their paws and backsides off the frozen ground as much as possible - we don't have snow (tiny sprinkling last weekend) .. lovely photo - cheers Hilary
Morning Betsy... Don't these wee critters amuse us....I got some shots of Red yesterday...very cute! What would we do without our backyard friends,eh? Hours of free enjoyment! Have a great day...dull and cold here.... Cheers! Linda :o)
I just found a recipe in an an old French cookery book on how to make "écureuil tarte". Would you like me to email you a copy of it? In American English of course.

ReplyDeleteI don't mind being out in the cold if there isn't any wind. Nice you can still walk to work...hopefully for a little while longer!
DeleteMy Jo Malone samples came yesterday! I love the Blackberry and Bay! So nice!

No, you can't show up to work with wet knees. I do agree! haha.
DeleteHow do you get those critters to pose for you?
ReplyDeleteHe's even smiling!
They make great eye contact. I don't know what it is! He sure was cute out there...he and the bigger squirrel....
DeleteAwww - look at his little frosty self. So darn cute! I know they have fur, but oh my, I shiver for them!

Sorry about that! My comment ended up in the wrong place!!
DeleteMarla
Your comment looks fine to me! And I think you are sending us your snow! It's been gently falling all day!
DeletePoor guy looks a little cold
ReplyDeleteAs the snow takes hold
Or just keeping a watchful eye
For any cats that may decide to fly
There's always a cat lurking below
Deletein the pines as the gusty winds blow.
So far he's outsmarted them all
and sits and eats when dinner calls.
Great photo! Bless it! He looks cold, but all he needs to do is wrap that bushy tail around himself. Look how full that thing is. Love that you caught him with snow on his nose.
ReplyDeleteHe kept digging his face into the snow on the feeder...so funny!
DeleteI swear he kept stopping to pose for the camera. "Is this my good side, Betsy?" haha.
Love squirrels these days, your positive attitude has helped me to like (still not quite love) winter!
ReplyDeleteProgress, I say! Pure progress! lol....
DeleteAnd we're 1/3 done with winter as of tomorrow!
Winter wouldn't be so bad if the snow was warm and the ice soft and bouncy. I could learn to enjoy winter if it were so!
DeleteBetsy . . . Roll on the next 2 thirds (as quickly as possible) . . lol
DeletePerhaps it was warmer Keith might be tempted to pose in your tree . . . lol
No, I love winter to go long and slow! What's wrong with you people?
DeleteWhy do you want the heat, allergies, bugs and sweat? lol...
lol . . . I don't sweat . . . it's not that hot here in non winter months . . . :)
DeleteQuite the poser, isn't he?
ReplyDeleteHave you a name for him?
Great shot Betsy and you didn't even have to go outside in the cold ~ shame though because we might have been treated to another peek at those boots . . . lol
Spiffing boots, eh what old bean? Absolutely wizard, just like the Brylcream Boys wore in the Spitties during the last war, what! (RAF banter)
DeleteJolly Hockey Sticks to you Keith, old boy . . . Frightfully col;d weather we are having ~ real brass monkey weather!!
DeleteBetsy ~ Are you soaking again in that tub? . . . :)
You pansies don't know what a cold winter is! You say it's freezing there and I'll check online and it's 45F degrees there. Silly men....
DeleteAnd yes, Keith...my boots are a bit like the Brylcream Boys! Maybe I should give them a good spit and polish. haha.
Yes . . . but you've got a lovely furnace to keep you warm all day ~ just think of the latent heat you have stored ~ so when you go into the cold for a few seconds you hardly notice a thing . . . don't forget we a nearer to Russia who kindly send us artic wind with a wicked chill factor . . . hahah
DeleteYou tell her Eddie!
DeleteI saw a brass monkey today running around looking for a welder!
DeleteLaughing at "Pansies" . . . she must love us . . . haha . . or me anyway . . lol
DeleteDid he find the welder? . . . lol
"Pansies"? A 'Cheeky Cherokee' no less! Ha.
DeleteRussia? The wind blows the other direction, you know. haha. Maybe Iceland is freezing you? Or Canada? lol....
DeleteWell the Artic. Russia, Siberia ~ sometimes the wind changes direction . . . lol
DeleteNow I wouldn't be surprised about Canada!!! . . . get frost bite just thinking about it . . haha.
That is just the cutest picture. What a poser!
ReplyDeleteHe sure is! Looks right at me! Such personality!
DeleteHe would be one of my favorite things.... So cute with the snow on his nose and eyelashes. What a capture. Love it.
ReplyDeleteHe was digging face first in the snow to find those seeds!
DeleteAww - you get the cutest shots of the critters in your neighborhood!
ReplyDeleteHe is pretty cute, isn't he? That tree is real close to my kitchen window
Deleteso I have a nice view of him!
Awww Cyril the cute :-) thanks for feeding him so nicely Betsy, he looks all fluffy and well despite the cold :-)
ReplyDeleteGuess what! This isn't Cyril...this is the little one! He's grown some but I can tell the difference. His tail has little curls in it! haha. Yesterday he and Cyril were there together ...fun to watch.
DeleteWow that's great! How will you call the little one then? :-)
DeleteI don't know! Keith named Cyril, so maybe he can come up with a name for his sidekick. haha.
Deletehaha ... I guess ... Cyril sounds perfect so he is good at the job .... :-)
DeleteMaybe he'll read this and give him a name!
DeleteHi Betsy - ours are running around keeping their paws and backsides off the frozen ground as much as possible - we don't have snow (tiny sprinkling last weekend) .. lovely photo - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteYou need to take some pictures, Hilary! :)
DeleteMorning Betsy...

Just saw Red on Instagram. Aw....he's just too cute!

ReplyDeleteEw. They eat squirrel in the hills of West Virginia....but I would never. haha.
DeleteTrouble is that the hair gets stuck between your teeth! Ha.
DeleteOh goodness...
