I had two lovely encounters this morning when I went out early to greet the new day, and the sun. First was a bit of mist from the coolness. Then I felt a ruckus among the tree branches in my neighbour's yard across the street, and when I looked closely it was two squirrels scampering about and having great fun. I smiled. I like to watch squirrels run and play or fall in love, whatever they were doing to me was perfect. I felt that somehow they added a nice energy to my day.
But these two pictures below I didn't take at the time.
It was a few hours later, when I heard very close, at the side of my house, the characteristic sound that a squirrel makes... have you heard it? Bobap, bobap, bobap and with its tail bristling like shaking... 🤷🏻 or I don't know... maybe you would describe it in a different way, so this is just my way of telling you that little Bobap 😁 came to visit me.
I think she really enjoyed playing hide and seek with me, while I called her by that weird name I just made up, so that she would show herself and I could take a few pictures of her. She is curious, that's for sure. Maybe she was a little wary at first, but then she realised that she, just she, had my undivided attention and she seems to like that. Although there was a hummingbird hovering nearby too.
With those two pictures I showed you at the beginning of the post I finished the session because she was next to my house, and I guess she got bored about the thingy of you see me and you don't see me... 🤣 Then she decided to cross the street and run over the gate of my neighbour, to find another entertainment.
My little dog Chanel with her whining and looking over there was the one who alerted me that Bobap was leaving.
And so it was that I was able to take those photos that I liked a lot and I now gift them to you. 😉

Que linda! No hace mucho tuve una así dando vueltas en el árbol del jardín, pero no ha regresado más, al parecer por los gatos.
Quizás. Aquí yo no veo muchos gatos. Aunque sé que hay unos malotes que siempre me desguazan a Yin. Ahora mismo anda convaleciente de una herida en la cabeza... 🥺😔
Que linda ♥️✨️
Hace mucho tiempo que no veo una ardilla tan cerca 😍
Esta ardillita hoy me ha hecho reír cantidad. Después de publicar el post la vi cruzando la calle de nuevo, parece que regresó por más fotos.
Jjjj seguro 😅
I would like to see a squirrel in your yard, but apparently they only visit you to bring you joy and to get those spectacular photos. A kiss daughter. 🥰❤️❤️❤️
Mamani es que hay que prestar atención 🤭😄. Yo como me paso mucho tiempo mirando a los celajes, me encuentro mucho con Bobap por aquí y por allí. 🤣
It drove me crazy to see that squirrel, but what a beautiful, shiny fur!!!! You were able to take some amazing photos, I love, love, love, love it!!!!😃
Yes, after today I've seriously started to apply for a job at National Geographic because if I managed to photograph a squirrel like this with the Panasonic Lumix (if you could see the state it's in), I know I can do anything hahahaha ....🤭🤣.
You can do it all! Everything!
😊🚴🏻♀️📷
🤗😴
A descansar! Y dulces sueños.
Wow! The second image of Bobap jumping across the poles and the one jumping down is amazing!! Then the last third one of her bushy tail... I can't decide which is my favourite one
Well, decide which one you like the most! Hahaha... Joke.
It really has been a very productive day in terms of photography... And other matters related to the setting up of my open air office on a rooftop with jazz. Hahahaha... But with willpower everything is possible. Nobody can tell me a story. 🤭😉
Goodness gracious, what a great picture, my friend! Spectacular, both the squirrel with its shiny fur and lively eyes, and your eye, capturing it at just the right moments. If you don't get hired by National Geographic you can definitely go with Animal Planet. A big hug, I hope you are very well 🤗
Thank you! Well... Something is more than nothing. Hahaha... It was a nice day and I was happy with these photos. On other occasions they haven't turned out so well.
Big hug, yes, I'm fine. With a few aches and pains of old age but they are solvable hahaha. 😊😄
Que estés bien, @astrea, amiguita.
What an old age girl. 😂 You know I have a cousin who has not celebrated birthdays for years, she even forgets when it is, and mysteriously, it seems that time has stopped for her, she looks super young. And that has made me think, could it be that one ages because of the belief that this is the way it should be? That one gets stunted because one is programmed to, on a belief level? 😯
Te deseo un fin de semanas sin achaques y de fotos hermosas! 🤗
Yes, we are in a simulation where our greatest enemy is the mind. We have to overcome those negative thoughts. And I think there is a very effective way which is by reframing the idea and putting ourselves into action. Anything that involves action and movement for the body will refresh the mind.
¡Buenos días 🌻 y muchas gracias! Deseo que tus buenos deseos te regresen multiplicados.

Wow! :) :)

Wow! I just saw one for the first time last week near El Palenque, and it blew my mind. I didn't know there were squirrels running wild on the streets.
They are beautiful! Good thing you had a close encounter with a squirrel. They add happiness to our days.
What a cute little thing 😍 that face of wanting to play and have fun all the time haha and I must remark the quality of the pictures, you can see perfectly its beautiful face and bright color, what a beauty is Bobap 😍
As I saw her by the banana trees, I threw her a ripe banana 🍌.... But I guess she didn't see it.
Thanks for the compliments my precious little owl!
Thank you @nanixxx, for these boots photographs of Bobap. I've had a fever for two days and it's comforting and refreshing to observe your friend.
A big hug @nanixxx.
Hi, (no me digas...😔) but are you feeling better now? Is your fever gone? And what could the fever be caused by? I hope you get well soon. I was going to call you with the friend who visited me today. He has just left but he is still around.
I'm better, I have a strange theory about the illness. They happen for a reason, I had to stop yesterday, and the thing is that I've had a very emotionally charged year.
I think something inside me told me to stop and think. And I've thought about the future me, or maybe the future me has thought about me. Something has told me.
If you still see your friend or see him again, give him my regards and thanks for being so cheerful.
Thanks, I hope I haven't worried you. I'm very well (with a temperature of 38.5º, but very well).
Best wishes.
I know what you mean. Every day I am more and more convinced that a person has to give himself a lot of love, pamper and take care of himself... and do what really makes him happy. Everything comes in nice and multiplied doses when you feel like a creator of your reality. Keep that fever at bay but put beautiful thoughts in your mind... and remember that nothing is impossible. There are divine times when everything happens. Just live your present intensely and smile.
Estarás bien, lo sé.
Muchas gracias @nanixxx, estoy con fiebre (y no se si alegre) pero sí sensible.
Muchas gracias por estar siempre.
