Safe

This guy managed to escape Meg after a very intense chase involving him hanging onto the top of an eight foot tall twiggy tree while the dog caused it to sway wildly in her attempts to catch him. He jumped and missed the larger trees at least once from that perch, narrowly avoiding getting munched on the ground. I think once he got here he needed to catch his breath. Not long after this poor Meg discovered the neighbours' electric sheep fence hiding in the trees and went home at top speed howling a good chunk of the way. Payback from Mr. Squirrel, perhaps?
Not the best photo of a squirrel, but the leaves made kind of a neat frame and it was the best image I took today. I cropped this in Picasa, nothing else.
