Close Encounter of The Squirrel Kind!

While fence painting yesterday, a Grey Squirrel joined me, sitting on top of said fence, within arm's length, so close I could see he/she's, little heart beating away, and the sun reflecting in it's big eyes.
So we just sat looking at one another for around 10 mins, the conversation a little one-sided, simply greeted by an odd blink or flick of a bushy tail...a strange encounter, I thought, having my painting efforts, supervised by a Squirrel, kind of 'Alice in Wonderland-ish'...even 'curiouser', as I'd recently read and commented on @pgntwo squirrel antics post, and bemoaned the demise of the RED squirrel, to the Grey!
So maybe he/she/it, just stopped by to remind me that, a squirrel of any colour, is just a Red squirrel of a different hue, and equally deserving of my attention! ...and then scampered off across my newly painted fence.
Another LIFE lesson, maybe.
