Just beautiful, Miss Jo...had a dream last night ( and I never remember dreams ) - you had moved to L. A. and had already started an incredible Sony Holland blog. Don't go, I'd miss you terribly. Besides, I might need a roommate!

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
