Field Notes

Notes:

One week ago, I took this picture http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/9829688. And today, walking through the Morton Arboretum in Lisle look who I came across again. The Fox Squirrel who knows how to relax. I'm wondering if it's a behavior of an individual with a lot of personality or a character trait of most Fox Squirrels.

As he spotted me laughing, he jumped up struck a more dynamic pose.
