Re: Interesting or Unusual Behaviour
Mel - Urikaruus it is! Seems you've seen it as well?
Dewi - I hadn't even noticed the use of the tail as a decoy. Who knew squirrels are the equivalent of snake charmers (who use their flute to deflect attention) ?? Thanks for pointing that out...interesting.
Thanks for the comments RP and Flutterby.

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Re: Interesting or Unusual Behaviour
Seen on the Orpen Webcam on June 18th. Has anyone seen a giraffe swimming/bathing before?
Wonder if it got out ok?
