Red squirrel

This squirrel was sitting on a tree in my garden, above the feeders, just sitting and sitting, occasionally grooming. It is remarkable that he is happy to sit there in this cold weather. It is -17 and -26 with the windchill. It is so cold, that on a long hike today in Larose Forest, the water in my water bottle froze!

Poor little guy. I feel sorry for the squirrels on the really cold days and put extra stuff out for them.
