Squirrel Sunday - Propeller Seed Fiasco

The squirrels are back for another #squirrelsunday

This squirrel has super powers and can just fly up the sides of trees with just the power of his mind.

A baby nearby notices and wonders how he could possibly get such cool powers.

Super squirrel says you just have to buy some performance enhancing propeller seeds.

Old man squirrel says those propeller seeds nearly killed him once and to keep away from them. Kid you better just practice climbing with your claws like all the rest of us squirrels do.

Another teenager squirrel is trying out some drugged up propeller seeds. He bought them from the muskrat down by the river and almost got mauled by a fox on the way there. Lets hope these things pay off...

Meanwhile the con artist squirrel is figuring out how to sell these basic seeds with no powers in them as performance enhancing propeller seeds. First he'll need to dry them and repackage them with fancier branding and soak them in some household chemicals to make them seem legit.

Now the teenager squirrel has given up his allowance for some cheap knockoff seeds. He eats more and more hoping for any glimpse of telekinetic power...

Nope still nothing yet... I am still on the ground and not flying into the air with just the power of my mind. Ooomph, my stomach is grumbling and the world is spinning around me...

After a near overdose the teenager squirrel had to check into a detox program. Now he is stuck eating fresh greens for the next month to purge the knockoff seeds out of his system. Better get back to the basics of climbing with claws again. He will soon star in a DARE commercial for young squirrels on what not to do with your hard earned allowance...

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)

I definitely got lucky on the first shot, the second shot was lucky too as it was a baby squirrel just emerging from the nest.

All photos need a little bit of luck too, but that doesn't take the merit away! ;)

For the baby squirrel I just used my cell phone it was still quite tame after leaving the nest.

They are all over the place here, always a fun subject matter to point the camera at.

Meanwhile the lawsuit against the muskrats drags through the courts... Will things ever change? Will there ever be adequate detox and recovery funding? The lawsuit is the only hope for many squirrel communities.

Even the hawks are suffering getting contact highs from various drugged up squirrels they are feeding to their chicks.

Of course they do.

I've heard nature photography is one of the hardest to get "right" :)
