Forgive my ignorance. What is squirrel tail?

[kathyinmo]

Forgive my ignorance. I do not know what, "squirrel tail," is. Yes, I know what a squirrel's tail is like. Can you show me a picture of it, so I can figure it out, please?

Don't have one with it at the moment, but a tail that arches back over the back toward the head would be a squirrel tail.

Japanese bantams have it. It's a bit funny looking.

Google the UK Japanese bantam club web.ukonline.co.uk/japclub/Showing.htm
& you will know.

A tail that's more upright than 90 degrees (vertical). People also sometimes call a tail carried at a high angle (but less than 90 degrees) a squirrel tail, but officially it's over 90.
