R christopher Vest
what a fetching model. his riveting gaze is literally laced into the composition by the whiskers arcing outward. he seems a very amiable fellow: curious, healthy and a good sport for posing for this excellent capture.
Doris Potter replied:
Thank you so much for such a lovely, thoughtful comment R christopher. I love the adjective "fetching". He certainly was that (and all the other things you mentioned). :-)

Hi Donna. This little guy just came right over to me even though I had no food. It was like he wanted to connect with me. I felt honored. :-)

F/L2 This is one cute squirrel! LOL What is it about squirrels that melts our hearts? They're rascals of the highest order, destructive (chewed their way into our attic, steal bird seed, chew feeders) and yet so darn smart! Their antics make us laugh. What a perfect portrait, Doris:>)
Doris Potter replied:
Thanks Mother Nature. You described our relationship with squirrels so well! :-)
