Squirrel splooting in the tree then he spotted me.

Squirrels sploot in trees to cool their bodies down during extreme heat.

Why Squirrels Sploot

Cooling down:
Squirrels lie flat on their bellies with their legs splayed out on a cool tree branch or shaded ground to lower their body temperature.

Heat dumping:
Because squirrels cannot sweat like humans, pressing their thinner belly fur directly against a cooler surface helps transfer and release body heat.

Energy conservation:
This posture lets them rest, relax their muscles, and keep a steady balance on high branches during hot weather.

Very rare sighting of a Snow Goose in Lake Dallas, TX.

It is extremely rare to see a snow goose in Texas in the summer. These birds are winter migrants that breed on the high Arctic tundra. During the summer months, they are thousands of miles away in Canada and Alaska, though an occasional non-breeding or injured bird may occasionally linger.

Injury or Illness: A snow goose spotted in Texas during the summer is almost always an individual that is sick, injured, or too young to make the return migration up north.

Habitat Mingling: While they normally keep to themselves, stray or injured Snow Geese will sometimes associate with non-migratory resident Canada Goose flocks on local lakes and golf courses.
