Squirrel frozen solid in my pool

[Xenomit]

I know the ice is a little hard to see, but you gotta trust me, it's about 3 inches thick. It hasn't gotten above 32 degrees in the last 5 or so days. There's a bit of water on some of the surface, that's from me messing around with the ice so much.

Yesterday I was punching holes in the ice for the fun of it, and it didn't manage to freeze back over until early in the morning. What I'm thinking happened, is a squirrel fell off the tree that hangs over my pool, tried to get out and ended up falling into one of the big holes I made. From there obviously he would have died pretty fast from either drowning, or hypothermia, and now he's frozen into my pool.

I've never seen anything like it, it's both saddening and amazing.

You should collect it and boil it so you can keep the skull!

[Ron-Geno]

So you killed the poor thing?
GG

Some squirrel family is now suffering.

It was right the way I had it. I took that picture with my ipod.

[Jester]

That's actually really cool.

[Tankdown]

Nope, I can't imagine why a squirrel would do that in the middle of winter.
It must be murder!

He's talking about the orientation of the picture. You could've done that yourself.

Oh hey, didn't you have insanely shitty grammar a few months/years ago and were oddly intent on letting everyone know your sexual preferences or was that someone with a similar name?

[Boomstick]

Free frozen dinner. Just apply heat.

You lazy iPhone users with your tilted photos and 9x16 portrait videos make me SICK.

Cut out a chunk of the ice with the squirrel frozen in it and place it inside your freezer to preserve it.

I'll have to let it freeze a bit more before I can do that. It's supposed to get down to around 0-2 degrees tonight, it'd be a perfect time.

No, I mean the picture was taken in portrait, not landscape. You rotated the image to an orientation that it wasn't taken in, and that's a no-no.

Why would I take the picture in landscape, it makes more sense to take it in portrait considering all I had to get in was the ice and the squirrel.

[Darthdenim]

But what if it's not really a squirrel, but The Thing?

It will eventually thaw out and imitate everything in sight!

Fine.

But it's still your responsibility to make sure the pic is rotated properly before you confirm uploading it.

I bet you only take vertical videos.

[mechadude32]

Cut the chunk with the squirrel in it out, put it your freezer, and preserve for a time when they are extinct. Take out of the freezer. Profit.

[Slint]

Try sticking your dick in there, apparently your pool freezes furries.

I don't record videos. The quality is so low that there isn't really anything worth recording with it.

Good, there's enough 240p on the internet clogging it up as it is.

[Viper]

Looking past the fact that its a dead animal frozen in ice, I'd say thats pretty cool.

[FRAYDO]

remarkable! while it does sadden me, this is simply remarkable!

Firstly, squirrels don't just fall. They're not gibbons.

They don't brachiate. They don't just slip.

Secondly, it was blatantly chasing an acorn.

Ha ha ha, like in the Ice Age film!

You very obviously live in a place that doesn't have much wildlife, squirrels fall from trees all the time. Like, really often.

I see it literally all the time. They usually catch themselves on a lower branch, but a lot of times they fall all the way.

You may want to move to another location as you are currently in the middle of a biblical plague.
