What a cute story. Unfortunately a hawk immediately swooped down, snatched the little red squirrel and ate him for supper.
I pulled an ungrateful mole out of a lake once. A crow came down and picked it up when I left.
Time for the meme of the hawk attacking George Costanza holding the squirrel in Kramer’s apartment.
Saw a largemouth bass take a ducking. Later, I saw momma duck get taken by a snapping turtle. Head came off first.
