On a sunny afternoon last week, I heard a knocking sound against my window that seemed to be coming from outside. I peeked out and saw a squirrel wrestling with a small apple on my windowsill! He must have sensed my presence because he abandoned the apple and went scampering up a nearby tree.
Son K noticed the apple on the windowsill some hours later and wondered where it came from, as we don't even have an apple tree. It's that time of year!
It's that time of the year indeed.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this season!
That was a fun visitor! I am sure this time of year keeps them very busy! Have a good week, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI have apples in my kitchen and we don't have a tree. Must have a squirrel. Actually we do. I see him or her scampering along the fence. Always busy. Unseen in summer so definitely autumn is here.
ReplyDeleteSo cute:) Squirrels ate a lot of our nuts form our garden:)
ReplyDeletePerhaps it was a performance squirrel? The squirrel brought the apple to your windowsill and decided to put on a show for you. Unfortunately it was nervous and ran away due to stage fright when it actually saw you.
ReplyDeleteSquirrels are fun to watch!
ReplyDeleteI love watching squirrels, especially at this time of year.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
We can learn from animal behavior what we should be doing to prepare for the seasons. I love watching squirrels "squirreling" away, food for the winter months ahead~
ReplyDeleteLovely story and colour in those leaves.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely photograph, I love how the leaves are changing colors. Cute story about the squirrel!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great story.
