Retrospective: My Year of Squirrels

As the year winds down, I’ve decided to create a few retrospectives.

Without further ado I present: My Year of Squirrels

Sure, they can drive you nuts while they dig up your bulbs, but their cuteness more than makes up for it.

I don’t know much about squirrels (possums — that’s another story!) but they do seem to be cute little critters. The music was great too. 🙂

Thank you, Laurie.

I use a software called Animoto. The music is Everybody Smile by Michelle Lockey.

I know I just said I was getting to things over on Facebook (LOL) but I’m so glad I took a moment to see what you where up to here….AWESOME !

I love, love, love all your squirrels in their very own video. Very well done Alys 😀 The cute captions just made me smile more with every one. “I’m working out”….how perfect! And “whisper, whisper”….Omgosh! It felt like a walk thru the most lush gallery ever. I could almost feel the soft breeze in my hair and the dabbled sun on my cheeks. I also enjoyed the melody! What was that called?

Oh, now I’m ready to float off and do the rest of my wrapping. So cute, must share on FB xoxox! Love You!

LOL Thank you. I thought the squirrel looked like he was lifting weights with his short little arms (and needs to with his round, white belly, a perfect match for my own).

Thanks for your generous compliments. You’re the video star. I love all the creative things you dream up and share with us all. xo

  Ok, I see something new every time. I love how the sunny flares on the photo’s and how they look like they are hanging in old frames in an outside gallery. and the captions are just hand written and pinned and clipped and taped. Just wonderfully perfect for your subject matter.
  
  ps 😀 thank you too.

    I used an Animoto template, so I can take very little credit for the flares, but the photos and captions and editing are mine. These products make it so easy.
    
    Thanks for being here!

I remember some of those squirrels appearing in different posts – I didn’t realise there were quite so many! [posts and squirrels] That was a fun video to watch – a great post Alys! 🙂

Thank you, Pauline. I could have made this five minutes long with tall the squirrel pics I have! LOL. I tried to use the best.
