Ambitious Squirrel at Dusk, 2015, Archival Digital Print
The Gang of Four are Squirrels-in-Residence near the feeders. Our deal is I give them dried corn-on-the-cob and they promise to leave black-oiled sunflower seeds for the birds. I was the only signatory to the pact. They know I scold them when they get too greedy so this ambitious fellow decided the darker hours would given him an advantage. He scaled the metal pole with no effort and that evening dined by moonlight.
