A real poser, this one

Caught the critter munching on his afternoon snack in the Grinnell nature area, just inside the south-west entrance to the Berkeley campus. Thought he's going to make a dash for it as soon as I approach--but he didn't. Either he's very confident that being shot by a camera is no lethal affair, or, as we say in these parts, he's a real poser, this one. There are excellent reasons why UC Berkeley is numero uno on the Campus Squirrel Listings
