Description When I was five, and had learned something of God, I prayed, "Please, God, I want to be able to talk to the squirrels." I know, a strange prayer for a kid. This little one just told me not to repeat what she said, but I would not have known it without having waited fifty-eight years. Most folks aren't that patient.

I love the photo and the squirrels story. And now for the Question Of Ignorance: Are you using an infra red on this? I was just wondering about the leaves and background. Thanks!

Delightful description -- and not a half-bad photograph, either.

Kind of got the inspiration from your street shot of the flowers.
