BRANDON, Fla.—A photo taken by a Brandon woman in her backyard is making people smile across the country.
Mary McGowan’s photo of a silly squirrel was picked for one of The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards, a competition currently in its fourth year of delivering funny photos of animals being silly, according to NatGeo.
The photo was featured in a National Geographic article where they picked their favorite photos from the contest.
The caption on the photo reads: "Stop right there! This squirrel in Florida is giving you the right to remain silent."
