DEAD SQUIRREL

* WARNING : THE IMAGES HERE ARE OF A DEAD ANIMAL-IF THINGS LIKE THAT MAKE YOU SICK, OR QUEEZY, CLOSE THIS POST OUT NOW! IF DEATH OFFENDS YOU..CLOSE THIS POST OUT NOW! *

daniel was on his way home from his bus stop just down the road one day. came in telling me about a dead squirrel he had seen on the curb.

he said it was perfect. meaning, it didnt have a "squished" look, and simply looked like it was "sleeping".

he had such  cear deatils about it, i asked him to go take pics (so i could  blog about it here for him, as a memory, an event, something really "cool")

so heres the pics:




i realize that this (to some) maybe a MORBID post to actually post about. but theres something fascinating about this dead squirrel..he looks just like daniel said. like he is simply sleeping there.
he hasnt even had any flies on him yet. this must have happened within minutes of daniel coming upon it
im guessing he was hit by a car, crawled to the curb, and died.

i also wanted to post this in case he was the squirrel we raised : ROCKY. who happened to be a  FOX SQUIRREL..he had red coloring and a red plum on the underside of his tail.

the 1st picture doesnt show a red under sde to the tail, it seems to be normal.
which gives me a degree of comfort in thinking when we let rocky go, he survived and possibly STILL survives out there somewhere in the maze of our back yards.

RIP unknown, nameless Squirrel.
