The Wisdom of Pooh
It is always a delight to see something scurrying around in the shadows of the woods to greet you.
Squirrel with a mouthful
“Say, Pooh, why aren’t you busy?” I said.
“Because it’s a nice day,” said Pooh.
“Yes, but —”
“Why ruin it?” he said.
“But you could be doing something Important,” I said.
“I am,” said Pooh.
“Oh? Doing what?”
“Listening,” he said.
“Listening to what?”
“To the birds. And that squirrel over there.”
“What are they saying?” I asked.
“That it’s a nice day,” said Pooh.
“But you know that already,” I said.
“Yes, but it’s always good to hear that somebody else thinks so, too,” he replied.

Listen and enjoy nature….

Great clear shots and I love the golden background.
Thank you, Eliza!
I love Pooh!
Cute squirrel. 🐿❤
Tubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff….
I love him too! My first born’s nursery theme was Winnie the Pooh. 🙂 Thanks Vic!
I just realized my emoji was a chipmunk. 🙄
I have THREE camel & THREE mouse emojis…and no squirrel! 😖
Save the chipmunk emoji! Got a cute shot of one of them coming up very soon. 😉
Cool.
I love the squirrel photo Donna, frame him up! ❤️
My daughter and I watched the Pooh videos every night when she was very young, Pooh and the gang always helped her off to sleep. 🥰
He was and still is a special bear! Thank you, John! 😊
Cute post, Donna. I do love Pooh’s wisdom.
Such a wise ole bear…. 😊
Thank you, Sylvia!
There’s always something alive in the great outdoors to keep us entertained! Thanks for sharing.
Yes, there is, we just have to stop, look, and listen! Thank you, Susan, happy shooting!
My favorite character was Tigger! Squirrels live in my backyard for about six months and they make life more difficult than already is. Great shots, Donna. Here’s one more for you… 🐿 🙂
Awww….Tigger! Thanks, HJ! I know squirrels can be a nuisance, but they too can give some adorable pics. 😉 Hugs/prayers for tomorrow, Rock Star! 😎

Superb
Thank you so much!
Thank you very much!
Yep, one of my fav books.
Like the ending part as well,
Find the Enchanted place. Just take the path to Nothing, and go Nowhere, until you reach, and be friendly to bears. 🙂
A great shot for some delightful thoughts
The ending is wonderful and my kind of path! 😊 Thank you for sharing, David! ❤
I and my daughters were never much into Pooh, but he was obviously a very clever bear! 😊 Very nice pictures too, I know how hard they are to capture, as they never seem to keep still!
Thank you, Mike! Yes, Pooh is a wise ‘ole bear…. 😊 Yes, squirrels are great for practice! lol
Yes, very clear, sharp photos! Nicely done!
Thank you, so many times they were gone before I got my lens on them & focused! 😉
😊
I am happy I made you smile! 😊
Nice Donna! Very colorful and fun to see!
