Boy that is a familiar sight. They do hang by their back toenails and stretch out. Their muscles are so big I assume that have to do this to keep from getting knots or cramps. Amazing photograph.
Well...I just looked out my window where a big linden tree reaches out towards my window...one little squirrel comes running down the trunk and suddenly stops. It proceeds to dangle from its toe nails and lengthen his body in what seemed like a functional full body stretch. I quickly googled if squirrels do in fact stretch and came across your site...WOW...a first for me at 43 yrs of age. I never knew. Another thing we have in common with the animal world.
now that's a stretch-- must go look at all your posts- I always love seeing nature in all forms Sandy's some stretch!!
