I am dying from cuteness overload!

So cute! Myself, I had a blackbird nest by the side of my balcony this spring, but it was quite hidden in the thicket of wisteria and therefore difficult to observe... still, you could sneak a peek if you positioned yourself just right :) The little ones fledged a few weeks ago.

Wow! What amazing colouring. I've never seen that on a squirrel before

We're not allowed to feed squirrels in the park, but my boyfriend and I would do it anyway. One cheeky fellow climbed up my leg and onto my chest, asking for the unshelled almond in my hand. I gave it to him, and he scampered down my leg. That was a good day.

On behalf of the squirrels, thank you for taking the trouble to help them get back to their lives.

I am Iron Squirrel

that's me after quarantine

Where I live, grey squirrels are the most common. I have spotted a few blond ones, a couple of black ones, and an albino. They're all adorable.

I love it!

Back to nature

That is the position I assume when I am annoyed. We'd do best to avoid this squirrel for now.

Your father is a good man.

Oh no it dropped its nuts!

Good job and thank you.

So relaxed.

Bless him. He shouldn't forget he put them there.

Too funny!

Whilst it's sad that the sister didn't make it, I'm happy that Thumbelina is thriving and living her best life.

We don't deserve dogs - and squirrels

A teacup? Well, we are civilized folk, afterall.

Please, sir, can I have some more?

Be very, very careful not to feed squirrels too many almonds as they contain cyanide (deadly) and squirrels can't process it very fast. Over the winter I started to feed my backyard squirrels and read that almonds should only be an occasional treat. They love peanuts!

New York squirrels have attitude!

Wow! I can think of hree possible explanations: 1) Color gene is on the X chromosome, and this is a female with X chromosomes coding for different fur color, 2) there was a mutation very, very early in this squirrels life that messed up the color gene, 3) two of the fertilized egg cells in the mother fused early in the development.

Awww...

Get well soon

Yes. Yes it does.

So cute! Is that full grown?

Poor squirrel. At least it was able to walk away.

It's so cute! Look at those ears!

Can anybody find meeeee, somebody to love!

This squirrel has found a nice spot to chill out.

That is one of the sweetest things I have ever seen. And, it looks like the squirrel is having quite the feast.

And, they're practicing social distancing.

That's a great pic!

Is that the mom and a baby?

"Please sir / madam may I have some more?"

This reminded me of that video of a microwave dish *filled* with acorns. A literal waterfall of acorns comes pouring down. https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/1p99yx/squirrel_fills_antenna_with_acorns/

Yep, they know to expect 3 square meals a day now. This one is waiting on breakfast.

Me if I was a squirrel

He is magnificent!

It looks like it's ready to tackle the ice cream cone.

That is more than a fair trade, little fellow.

Providing a picnic table for the squirrels is so thoughtful.

Look at his fat tummy!!
