Let a tail be your umbrella

We’ve had rain for the past few days here in the District They Call Columbia. Started out as the remnants of Ophelia, but I don’t know what it is now. Thankfully, it hasn’t been heavy.

Usually when it rains, squirrels don’t come out. So it’s a good time to toss seed out to the birds and the chipmunk.

However the other day one or two of the little toerags did venture out during precipitation. That’s when I noticed that they were using their tails as umbrellas.




I’ve never seen them do this before, but then I’ve not really ever seen them out in the rain. It’s actually kind of clever.
