Thank you very much

This was my only visitor at the squirrel place Sunday morning. It was the first weekend in July, after all, and there was much chasing through the treetops going on.

From a very enjoyable day out at wakehurst place on Thursday.

No trip is complete without me finding and feeding a squirrel. The PIB squirrels look different than in my town, I loved their white chest. They were awfully friendly, too!

I photographed a fox squirrel in this hole several times last winter and spring.

This squirrel atop a rotten log provides a great complement to his white underbelly fur.

Finally got out with the camera today after 3 weeks. Met up with some Flickr friends at Forest Farm in Cardiff. Although there was some decent light in the area it was not falling on the perches outside the hide so high ISO was still needed.

There must be nuts around here somewhere!

I found a family of squirrels living in the tree in the front yard. There were 5 out playing the other night. They sure are adorable!

One of the squirrels out back is sporting a clipped tail. It's certainly not an intentional fashion statement, but it's definitely noticeable. I'm not sure what happened.

I noticed it Sunday, the same day I came downstairs to see a Sharp-shinned Hawk standing on a finch on the deck, ten feet from the door. The little finch was very much alive and struggling to break away, but the hawk was in no hurry. It stood there looking around for an agonizing amount of time (4 minutes?) before flying away with the still-living bird in its talons.

We live inside our artificial environments, but nature proceeds all around us whether we happen to notice or not.

Everybody in the Morgan Hall squirrel group was in major 'grab and run' mode last Sunday morning. This little newcomer was the only one who stopped to sample the goodies.

This squirrel is trying desperately to reach the bird feeder.

Fat and fluffy this fellow!!

By Sandee Vartanian Dusbiber. Mr. Squirrel was so excited in finding a new house. Most of the winter he has been living in an old vacant birdhouse. Today I noticed he was checking out this big hole in a very tall tree in our woods in Plymouth, Michigan. He finally got his chubby body in the hole, and spent most of the his time in the hole. I was surprised that he did not play with the others squirrels but stayed in his hole watching all the fun down below him. I wonder why he moved out of the vacant birdhouse? At least he had a roof over his hairy head.

My bird feeders must attract at least a half-dozen squirrels. I put seed on the ground to try to keep them well-fed enough that they MIGHT let the birds eat too... It works, mostly, but sometimes one of them gets onto a feeder anyway. This fella (or gal) is on the ledge of my office window, trying to figure out how to leap backwards onto the feeder behind him (or her).

He's just got really big hands and feet - I wonder if the saying rings true in the squirrel world ? :O)
