Very wise squirrels and it is good that they had a good store inside the tree. I enjoyed reading your creative Haiku. Your visits to my page were encouraging. Sara

Squirrels are clever to see the days of adversity and they store enough in their granary for a rainy day ! Beautifully observed!

I enjoy watching the squirrels in the yard and trees, and the birds in our trees and birdbath. Relaxing activity. Many animals have many lessons for us humans with we just slow down an observe every once in a while. lol Thanks for the visit and comments. Bill

Squirrels are survivalists. We could learn much about storing up for winter, literally and figuratively :-)

Yep, squirrels somehow know to prepare for the winter. Nature can teach us many lessons if we pay attention.
