Red and Rover by Brian Basset for February 06, 2022

Ice age is good against earth warming!!

What beautiful, delicate artwork. The squirrel is just lovely.

THE SHADOW KNOWS! BTW, just fabulous artwork depicting a wintry February morning.

Wonderful artwork indeed but, bad dog, Rover, bad dog!

Indeed you did, Rover. Great job!

See you in the spring, Mr. Squirrel!

Ok, Rover called it

Rover, squirrels do not stay spooked. They’ll be back for lunch.

Everyday the squirrels come on the patio to eat fallen birds seed….I open the curtains and they all run like heck for the pine tree. Except one! He sits up and stares me down then continues to eat the seed….too funny!

Everyday a woodpecker comes and furiously pecks at the feeder till it’s almost emptied on the ground! This draws not only the squirrels but deer, raccoons, bunnies and what ever roams the grounds at night….

Odd how the squirrels can see shadows but not speeding cars bearing down on them…

Rover is such a proud dog.

Wow that squirrel ran fast!

What a good laugh. Thanks, Mr Basset. I love the way you rendered the shadows. The overall artwork here today is outstanding, even for your strip.

The shadow of a dog when you are gone……
