Squirrel

We have lots of Fox squirrels around our yard, as they do enjoy plundering the bird feeders. We gave up long ago trying to stop them. Life is too short (for everyone!)

There are four baby squirrels at Bergdalen. I watched all four having lunch today at the veranda. One of the local cats, Matilda managed to catch one of them so now there are only three left.

Blogged.

Tree squirrels always seem to be alert. When alarmed, they will make harsh clicking sounds while flicking their tails before running away, making for the nearest tree where they will lie motionless.

This squirrel was on the tree outside our house. My daughter gave it some food and it got vdry trusting. I got like, 4 feet from it.

Chunky Squirrel

We've had a lovely Easter day. First of all, we went to watch the Sheffield Egg Run at the Children's Hospital. Then we went to Crookes Valley Park to see the pair of Great Crested Grebes we had heard had been doing the "Dance of Love". I got a few shots but they decided they weren't going to dance whilst I was there! We then went for a gorgeous meal and then onto the Botanical Gardens, where I managed a couple of squirrel shots. Finally we went off to St George's Tower to see the pair of breeding peregrines live instead of on the webcam. One of them was present on the platform, but was it George or was it Mildred?

Fall Season.

Yet another squirrel photo from Sheffield Botanical Gardens. This one is foraging about on the ground among some fallen leaves, giving the picture a distinct Autumn look.

Just a random squirrel with a random nut!

Cute little squirrel!

This is one of the ways I can tell when a hawk is nearby. A second or two after a squirrel strikes a pose like this, all the critters on my seed-coated porch rail vanish.
