Message of the Day – A Squirrel

While at the First United Methodist Church of Crystal Lake yesterday and today, men were putting together and installing new benches for the outdoor chapel.

The men were befriended by a little squirrel.

It had no fear of humans.

It would sit there chewing on a maple seed—or a helicopter seed, as some in my family call them—and allow me to approach close enough to take pictures without a long lens like this one.

From allowing men to touch it to allowing others to hold it, this little fellow was fearless.
