This wee fellow was scampering around the back garden today, making his final preparations for the coming winter.

Or maybe it’s a she? I don’t know how to sex squirrels.

Whatever, the agility that this squirrel showed when jumping around the garden was pretty impressive.

I don’t think that Tess shared my admiration for the squirrel, though. Tess just about jumped through the (closed) patio doors in her determination to get out and chase it!
