Description
Dawn's family raised an orphaned baby pine squirrel they named Twitchy. He was always full of mischief. When winter came, Twitchy stayed around the cabin even though he could take care of himself by then. Once, when Dawn watched out the cabin window as a group of mule deer drifted by, she saw Twitchy sneaking up on them. He kept behind sagebrush until he'd gotten close, then sprang out at the deer with a loud, boisterous chatter. The deer scattered in panic, spronging up the hill -- then they stopped to look back. They sure seemed surprised when they realized they'd been fleeing from a tiny pine squirrel! Dawn painted the scene as one of her annual Christmas and Holiday cards.
