Hello Everyone
Thanks for posting those great photos.
I hope you consider submitting to the DG photo contest because you all have a great chance to win!
It is just starting to warm up outside and the other morning I was birdwatching from my window while having coffee. No birds tho. I didn't have anything else in the house, so I threw out a bunch of flax seed. Sat there awhile and nothing happened of course. Got home from work and there was a crowd of squirrels in front of that window. First time I saw so many at once. When we lived in NY - the boroughs and upstate - I can remember squirrels everywhere. Florida too. But in NC, although I do see them and I have seen signs of them (they enlarge the door in my wooden birdhouses --if you wanted to see something hilarious you ought to have seen me up on a ladder peering in a birdhouse and encountering the upclose face-only of a squirrel..(up close their faces look like tiny monkey faces) Anyway, I made like a flying squirrel and me and the ladder parted ways! I'm not sure who was more scared me or the little fella! Please keep posting the photos - I love them all. Dorothy

Oh my, must have been quite the scare!
I looked out early this morning and the birds were sitting in the trees looking at the house. I wondered what was up, until I saw the feeders were not out. (DH takes them in at night, due to the raccoon visits, they tend to be on search and destroy)
Well, guess he forgot to put them out this morning. The birds were non too patient. Expected them to be tapping on the window next.
We try to feed the critters a balanced diet here!! LOL
Squirrel eating an apple.
Very cute nanny!
One from today.
They sure are brave…
Or just very hungry!
This is back from February
Mirror image. "we're cousins, identical cousins all the way, we talk alike, we walk alike..."
wow, where did that come from.
ROTFLOL!!
Patty & Cathy, yeah!
I loved that show! (and the pic, too!)
Yeah, I liked that show too. Can't remember any more of the song though.
PATTY DUKE THEME SONG
(from the t.v. show "Patty Duke")
By: Patty Duke
Meet Cathy who's lived most everywhere.
From Zanzibar to Barkley's square.
But Patty's only seen the sights
a girl can see from Brooklyn heights.
What a crazy pair.
But they're cousins,
identical cousins all the way.
One pair of matching bookends,
different as night and day.
Where Cathy adores a minuet,
the ballet Rouse, and crepe suosette.
Our Patty loves to rock-n-roll,
a hot dog makes her lose control,
what a wild duet.
Still they're cousins,
identical cousins and you'll find,
they laugh alike, they walk alike,
at times they even talk alike,
you can lose your mind!
When cousins, are two of a kind!
Oh my!
I will have that stuck in my head now. Thanks for posting, I don't think I ever knew all the words to that one. ^_^
It was a neat show, Patty Duke sure did an excellent job portraying two people.
So are the squirrels named Patty and Cathy yet?
Think that's it! LOL
We were calling this one 'Fat Eddy', think we need to change that...
I absolutely love your pictures! They are fabulous. What a clever bunch they are!
Hasn't found a way to break this yet… But still pretty tenacious about getting some snacks from it.
LOL, great pics!
Something made a notch in this one's tail!
LOL Matches the notch on this one's ear!
And here..
Oh my!!
This little fellow kept trying to get up the pole but the slinky was making it difficult....
Unfortunately he's so little and lightweight that he scrambled his way up anyhow.
...pretty comical however.
every time a car passes..
there he is!
Thats funny nanny!
Nice pic Julie!
Thanks for today's chuckle Nanny, Julie!
peekaboo, I see you...
Squirrels today. Double the fun.
One in the bush.
Your squirrel photos are amazing, gardenpom!
I took this picture actually for the burl on the tree. But loved that the squirrels were all playful around it.
Here is mine for today, which was ctually taken yesterday...what the heck is a burl anyway??
Mrs Ed the pic is great! I love the "hidden" squirrels.
Nanny, too cute! How did you capture that without any blurring? What color on that squirrel. We are in the same zone, but our squirrels don't seem to have quite as rich color. It is a grey squirrel, no?
That is HUGE! I did'nt see the squirrels at first. The burl looks like an explosion of sorts. Thanks Gardenfrances for the compliment.
We have the fox squirrels here. Maybe to their rich natural diet maybe or the oil from all the sunflower seeds they eat from my feeders!. LOL
I didn't realize we had squirrel postings. Great idea - that and cipmunks. That last shot is so funny!
found my funny one. BEV Well three!
