ADORABLE SQUIRREL GETS READY FOR A SNOWBALL FIGHT
ROLLING up snow in its tiny paws, this little squirrel is looking for a snowball fight. Wildlife photographer Simon Phillpotts spotted the adorable squirrel in the woods by his house in the Yorkshire Dales. The 41-year-old, of Wensleydale, North Yorkshire, says: “Red squirrels are often very inquisitive and while they can’t roll a snowball, this one looks like he might have managed it and could be about to lob it at someone. ‘This was one of the cheekiest and most curious squirrels in my woodland, and as soon as he saw the snowball he ran over to it to take a closer look.
