squirrel fatality

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2003.08.24

I noticed a squirrel that had fallen to its demise from a hydro pole, today. Lying quite neatly at the side of the road like a small squirrel carpet. It looked quite 'fresh', given that this is Summertime. Kind of a grey-beard, too. I wonder if older squirrels are at an advantage or disadvantage when it comes to agility and climbing and whatnot.
