Squirrel Friends

During a break in the misty morning, I went our for my daily run. I was on one of my walk intervals when the sound of two squirrels scampering across the wet leaves caught my attention. Now there’s nothing unusual about that, but I was intrigued watching them pounce from one tree to the next. Was it a male chasing a female? Was it a parent and child playing around? Or was it two squirrelfriends away from the nest for the day shopping for bargain nuts, continually engaging in squirrel-talk?
Obviously, I’ll never know. But they looked to be in relationship, and they definitely looked to be having fun.
