A brown squirrel nibbles on a nut while perched on a green wooden park bench in New York, 1949. Shot on 8mm film, this vintage home movie captures the animal in natural daylight, its bushy tail flicking as it eats. The grainy, slightly green-tinted footage evokes mid-century Americana, with the bench’s slats and surrounding park environment visible in the background. The scene is quiet and observational, offering a nostalgic glimpse of urban wildlife from the late 1940s.
