Bushy Tail The Curious Squirrel By: Florence P. Bullis The camp may be home for several squirrels, but only one called Bushy Tail, shows up regularly and he is into everything. Bushy Tail, a lively, energetic, inquisitive creature of the forest, reclaims the campground as his permanent residence. Nothing is beyond his ability to investigate and report back to Chatter, his mate. The campers all appear to have fun, especially with a character like Bushy Tail around. If there are more squirrels than these two, the others are too shy to be seen in the campsite at the same time as Bushy. A young couple with two small boys are quite challenged to live for six weeks in a conestoga-like, fold-down camper trailer. The campground is located in Florida with a shower and restroom building close to the site. A natural pool is provided for recreation, and Bushy Tail's antics entertain at least this one camper family. Florence P. Bullis combines a little fiction with a bit of non-fiction in poetic form, from a squirrel's point of view with humor and excitement, filling the experience with treasured memories worth sharing back home and with future campers.
