While I was in the aviary feeding the birds, this guy decided to help himself to a peanut and knocked over the whole can of seed. I was planning on filling the bird….who are we kidding, “squirrel” feeders next, but obviously I wasn’t moving fast enough.
Baby squeeeeirrels! Old, dirty window photography again
How can I tell them apart? I just can. She is rather tame and will take a peanut out of my hand if I let her, but I don’t encourage that anymore. She may be sweet, but she has razor sharp claws and can be a little.. well, “squirrely” at times.
Actually I think the small one is her offspring. The squirrels normally do not share feeder space with each other, but the adult female lets the little one eat with her – for now. I shot this through the window because the baby squirrel is skittish and will take off if I go out into the yard..
I had no patience for hummingbird photography today and there were plenty of these little posers in the backyard.
