I thought this ending to the story was amusing when I sketched it out, but now that it's finished, I feel quite sad when I look at it, and sorry for hungry squirrel.
It was a good chance to use this sunset photo again.
The 'background' story of a squirrel not finding all of the nuts it hides is something I like. New life springs from forgetfulness.
What's more fun than a cuddle with a woolly critter?
