Many thanks for the smile my friend - a super picture. And I just love that drunken shelter, it's really got some character, hasn't it!!!;)

Lol, the nails look like steel fangs! Squirrels are smart critters, though they can be quite destructive and annoying as well (lol). Brilliant spot, capture and picture Craig! TFS!
