Some mischievous chipmunk anonymously posted a challenge on CritterBook, the popular social media service. The challenge was quite simple, post a photo of yourself sneaking up and scaring the heck out of some other critter. Like most social media things, the challenge got a bit out of hand at the Woodpile.
I like to take my lunch break at the “stump.” It has the best views in the Woodpile. It is, correction, it was, a peaceful place to relax. Now, I eat a seed and looked around for pranksters.
Every little sound out of the ordinary makes you jump.
Well, it all started off as a bit of fun. I posted this photo of myself sneaking up on my friend Bushy. (You can just make out my face behind his head.) I scared him so badly he jumped three feet into the air.
After Bushy recovered from his shock, he patiently watched for an opportunity to repay the favor.
Bushy was laser focused and very patient, and waited for just the right moment for maximum affect.
Bushy posted this photo of myself climbing up the stump after being scared out of my wits.
Not my best moment, I must admit.
While Bushy was celebrating his success, a crow silently
landed on the stump
and prepared to grab his tail.
