Sizzle, photo by corinne.schwarz

I think this squirrel accurately reflects the feelings of many of us following a week of sauna-like conditions. The squirrel is heat dumping, shedding maximum heat by flattening its body. You can see some more examples of this in the hilarious Squirrel Pancakes photo group.

Check this out background big and see more (including a couple more shots of this squirrel or a relative) in Corinne’s slideshow.
