The answer is that the gray has been exercising.

Here we have a demonstration of the basic horizontal stretch.

The final workout of the morning involved variations of vertical stretching.

I call this particular stretch "ultra."

Wouldn't it be fun to have the dexterity of a gray squirrel?

Photo note: I used a Pentax *ist D, with either the SMC-A* 300mm lens for these photos, which were taken today, February 25, 2007.
