drinking?

This reminds me of the line often used in Western movies: "Where can you get a drink in this town?"


As you can see, this squirrel was determined to get some water. He could smell it, I guess, but there's simply no possible way he'd ever be able to get to it. Still, he was there for several minutes trying to puzzle it out. Squirrels are notorious thieves--getting into all sorts of things we'd prefer that they'd leave alone--but in this case all that skill was to no avail. He never got that drink.
