This is better than a Fed-x delivery. So cute! TFS

Sorry, this was the nearest I could find to having a squirrel shot...

Just one of Oklahoma's prairie squirrels. I forget which page it's on...

I think Rupert would appreciate this larger brown squirrel, though some may think it is a little squirrelly to post it here.

Great Horned Squirrel.
You DON'T want it raiding your feeder, and Heaven help you if they get in the attic...

I'm sure Otis would chase it away with a pile of burning tires.

Too many adverts on that page. My ads software doesn't like it.

I bought some apples to share with my oldest brother but he said they weren't ripe enough and too hard for him to eat. So, I've been feeding them to the birds and squirrels. I quarter them and put them in a suet feeder. Today I caught a squirrel trying to figure out how to get into the suet feeder. The green chain you see in the photo is holding the suet feeder on a hook off the feeder post.

A Columbian Groundsquirrel, that we would be quite happy not to have here...

This squirrel might be hard to spot - he's a blur on the run! Previously I posted a photo of this squirrel in the lower branch of the tree at center.

Went to Kensington Gardens for the first time in several weeks on Thursday. Didn't see any squirrels, but got a few pictures of parakeets and this little fellow:

Not as clear as I would have liked, but the first time I've managed to get a decent picture of one for some reason.
