Silly little muddy paws of cuteness

Do you know what squirrels' visual field is like? I anthropomorphize the squirrel as a human noticing someone watching them eat and pausing eating to look at the observer with peripheral vision and without moving their head. In other words, is the squirrel seeing the camera and possibly pausing eating? Or is it focused on the task at ~~hand~~ claw?paw?, munching peanuts and making a mess on that lovely shirt?

Hahaha I like your train of thought and "task at paw" ๐Ÿ˜‚ Yet I'm inclined to believe this little fellow is an almond focused one ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ

Almonds, right on. That's like a full size candy bar at halloween trick-or-treating

They look so cute and comfy perched there! ๐Ÿฟ๏ธ

Hopefully the shirt won't be a pain to clean.
