Howdy Y'all!


I'm not a wildlife shooter at all but would not want to miss a tribute to our departed friend Rupert, so here's one that I feel has just a little bit of the levity that he so often put into his squirrels and the the funny captions he gave them. This little guy was walking up the side of the house in the backyard.
