Aesha and Gambit's second squirrel

His first catch this season was not only lucky and perfect, but it was in the middle of our neighborhood where I usually don't hunt him for various reasons. But we saw an opportunity and took it. Yesterday's success was found in a spot that we have not explored that had less ground cover than the usual area. Immediately, we had several opportunities arise. This one he worked really hard for and managed to catch it after chasing it and two other squirrels up and down several trees. This is the first time he caught one chasing it as it was running down the tree and him right on its tail in a vertical stoop, catching him right as they hit the ground! He has chased them down the tree trunks like that before, but he always gets caught up in small bushy branches near the bottom of the trees. This particular tree didn't have that.
