When I zoom way in it looks like a house cat to me. Holding front left leg up, head looking almost straight down.

Looks almost like a naked armadillo...

But where's the squirrel?

Bushy,

If you were really hungry, I bet you'd find a squirrel in those leaves! Very Happy

I thought it was a cat too. With a leaf on the 'tree" in the fore ground blocking out part of it.
The leaf is brighter in the squirrel picture.

I saw it as the left fore arm down and right side picked up - looking away from the camera cleaning its arm pit.

Sometimes a bird will fly past triggering the camera, but it doesnt actually take the picture until the bird is out of the frame.

I'm not sure there is anything really there to look at, maybe a trick of shadow.

No...It's something alright. It even has its own shadow...
