If the park is perfect for picnics, the oak is ideal for squirrels, and this piece cheerfully illustrates an encounter that awakens the mutual curiosity of animal and human. From the top of an oak tree enhanced with original wooden ornaments highlighting its distinctive leaves, a gray squirrel attentively observes the fun activities taking place below.
