Picture of the Day - August 23, 2009
"Squirrel Day Afternoon"
Photo courtesy of
Doug Thomson.
Today's picture proves that we humans aren't the only "creatures"
that need to just sack out and take a little nap on occasion. As you
can see, our normally feisty squirrel friends do as well.
Photographer Doug Thomson happened upon this tired little fellow and
quickly fired off this snapshot. He also provided a little
background info about the image:
"This is a picture I took while visiting Alligator Adventure in
Myrtle
Beach, SC. It was extremely hot and humid that day - a true
'Dog
Day Afternoon'. But when we noticed this squirrel taking a
break
from the heat, we couldn't help but call it a 'Squirrel Day
Afternoon'.
Sometimes we should pay a little more attention to what
nature
is telling us and just chill out!" --Doug Thomson
