can you spot him?


On my way to the post office the other day, I spotted this little fella. At first he scampered up the tree, but then when I got my camera out, he stood on the branch and turned around as if getting ready to pose! Sorry it's a wee bit blurry, but he was really quick... and I,well, I'm not as quick. Isn't he cute!?

    I love squirrels. I'm glad they're quick, otherwise my cat would snatch them up before you could say "do you want a peanut?", lol. Cute pic :)

    Aw, he's cute! I love squirrels :) My cat has been freaking out over them lately. She sees them through the window and starts clicking like a dolphin. Too funny!

    AWH! So Cute! They other day after a visit at Van Dusen garden we ran into a similar cutie, who was intensely eating a piece of acorn! He let us come very close for some snapshot as well!

    Very Cute!

    Yes he or she is very cute...and they tend to be very smart too. Have you ever tried to keep one out of a bird feeder ? I think I've bought at least 3 so called "squirrel proof" bird feeders and the squirrels always found a way. LOL...cheeky little clowns.

    I can sit at my computer and watch the squirrels playing in the back yard. They're entertaining!

    I like this game "FIND THE SQUIRREL". I need to photograph the squirrel in my yard who is missing his tail.

    That is adorable-great that you took the time to stop and enjoy it, and especially to share it with all of us.

    We have quite a few squirrels at our house. The dog likes to chase them, but she runs so fast she's over them in no time and once she's managed to stop and turn around - the squirrel is up a tree.

    There are literally HUNDREDS of squirrels on my campus. Too many for me!

    But I will admit, I have a favorite: a fat one that lives by my residence hall :)

    Oh nice. We don't have squirrels here and I'm always a bit jealous.
