Back in black

Just wanted to share some photos of a black squirrel that's been stopping by my feeder for a little over a month; I don't know if the April day I took these was the first time it was here, but it was the first time I happened to notice it.

Lady Slippers

Well, tonight my mom told me that if I didn't update soon there would be dire consequences, either for her computer or for me.

I didn't notice it at the time, but there also a single dandelion seed in the lower left of this image:
