"Bark-eater" chooses a tastier morsel.

This picture was taken on an early September evening. The porcupine balanced himself on the spindly branches
of a wild apple tree, holding fast with his back feet while his hands picked fruit. When he saw me, he "froze," hoping
that I would not see him. Notice the bite of apple in his mouth and the drool! He is a very beautiful and charming
creature.
