We don’t hang bird feeders any longer due to the risk of spreading disease, but in the days when I did, we were visited by opportunistic red squirrels. They joined the mourning doves on the ground, scavanging for dropped seeds, but had the advantage of being able to climb the pole to get direct access. This was taken in April one year. It’s another few months until we see the Spring, but it will come. Have a lovely day, friends! She features on my Wildlife Gallery.
Bonjour Ellie,
Magnifique écureuil que tu as réussi à prendre en photo, on dirait de pas de trop près. Il est trop mignon.
Je vous embrasse
Patricia
Merci, Patricia. Il n’était pas loin, mais évidemment avait tellement faim que je ne le dérangeais pas trop! Gros bisous de retour.
They are so cute when they scurry around. Love to watch them run up and down the trees.
I agree. They are so incredibly agile in their acrobatics. I wish I had the same energy!
He is a well-fed little guy. No wonder he is looking around to see if there are any rivals coming his way. Keep those eyes bright and that tail bushy…and that tummy full. So cute!. Thanks, Ellie.
I would guess that’s exactly the plan. To keep that tummy full, tail bushy and eyes bright with a many of those seeds as he can find
Thanks, Janet.
She does not seem wild! So cute!
They get quite relaxed around us, when there’s food around. Thanks, Françoise.
So sweet! What a great picture Ellie!
Thank you, Joanne. They are pests, but so cute with it.
Too bad they don’t clean up the shells for you too
I’ll suggest it to them next time, Jim! Actually, judging by the number of ones that sprout, they don’t even clear up all the seeds!
Rigolo !
Et oui! Mais aussi mignon!
