Feeling Squirrely!

I know lots of people have a "Love/Hate" relationship with squirrels, especially the big Gray Squirrels.  

But as they've been AWOL for most of the winter, I was glad to have this guy show up.

As with most grays, he was not bashful...

In fact, he was begging!

For all the chipmunk carnage (from the 2 Outdoor Cats), the gray squirrels go unmolested.

And you've got to admire their determination!

They're certainly cheeky little chaps but I have mixed feelings about them with what's happened to the red squirrels over here.

While I know that squirrels are really only rats with a better fur coat I can't help but love them. I always feed them and the birds and they always attach themselves to my "squirrel proof" feeders and I so enjoy watching them eating upside down. Oh to be so flexible - LOL!

My husband is at war with this poor little squirrel that comes to the bird feeder.

How hilarious. Reminds me of the squirrel that graces my yard. A little 'unafraid' at times. I am waiting for him to knock on the back door and ask for some mixed nuts or cashew's.

I think they are cute but I won't tell you what my husband does with the ones who go after the feeders on the deck. 0_o (Anywhere else on the property he leaves them alone though.)
