Silly Squirrel...pics

Oh, he's really cute. Looks tiny! Squirrels can be pretty brave, I saw one in a cheetah enclosure at the zoo once. He escaped, too!

He was small. I think he was probably just a young one. He better get smarter or he won't make it to be an old one!

Brave or dumb...it's a fine line sometimes!

Grest pictures. He's a very healthy looking little guy. My girl Maggie
is the only squirrel crazy dog around here. Not even food will tempt her
away once she spots them up on the electric wires in the back of our
yard. She barks till they leave.

A fox squirrel! He sure is cute. We don't have those around here, only grey squirrels.

Awwww how cute!!! We don't have this type of squirrels here; here they are brownish red, live in the woods and are extremely shy.
I met this grey squirrels when we were living in America; most people there did NOT like them, but I thought they were absolutely adorable!!

We have several types of squirrels around here. I think Suki was right and that little guy was a fox squirrel. We have red squirrels too and a few types of ground squirrels. There's nothing shy about any of them, but the tree dwellers are the cheekiest!

Lots of people around here don't like them either. They can be highly destructive. They rip up insulation, chew leather, ect. I used to have several squirrel feeders around until my neighbor told me that he was trapping the same squirrels I was feeding. They were destroying his riding equipment. They are considered vermin rodents legally and you can trap them just like a mouse. I think they are amusing little critters, cheap entertainment for me and the critters!
