The Praying Squirrel
"Thank you, Lord, for this meal. And thank you, Lord, for that nice man who puts the food out for me and the birds. Please tell him I like black sunflower seeds the best. Amen." The praying squirrel.
This little squirrel, a girl I think, is the only one so far that will let me get within 6 feet or so before running off. I happened to be sitting in the back of my truck and looking down toward the water bowl for this photo.
This little girl was busy with her nut when I happened to catch her nibbling away. She must be getting used to me snapping her photo.
"You looking at me?"
A young squirrel was hopping toward the bird feeders when he noticed me and decided to take a better look before continuing.
Whatcha doing?
Almost too close to make a photo with my zoom lens - about 5 feet away.
Whoopee!
2 squirrels cavorting between some trees in our back yard about 20 yards away.
Caught this fellow in mid-stride. It kind of looks like he is imitating a pointer.
Mr. Big Tail
This little squirrel has a really full tail.
What's Up?
A squirrel giving me a good look before heading for the food I had thrown near the tree.
Ready to Run
This squirrel wasn't taking any chances. He was ready to jump if I made any sudden moves.
Squirrel with Corn
A little squirrel enjoying a kernel of corn I had thrown near the tree.
Aw, a Nut!
This squirrel grabbed a peanut I had thrown close to the tree and scurried up to a branch before he looked to see what I was up to.
Napoleon Squirrel
This fellow was letting me know that he was not happy with me being so close to his favorite tree.
The Spy
This little fellow caught me napping on a balmy Sunday afternoon. I roused to make his photo before he decided I was harmless and started toward the bird feeders.
The Pointer
This squirrel seems to be ready to point at the food I put out for the birds.
I Can Do This
A squirrel trying to put 2 peanuts in his mouth at once.
Packing Double
The squirrel actually did manage to hold 2 peanuts in his mouth.
Tough Guy
This little fellow seems to be telling to come no closer.
Hey, you got sunflower seeds?
