“Not much goes on in the mind of a squirrel.”
Huge portions of what is termed “the squirrel brain” are given over to one thought: food.
The average squirrel cogitation goes something like this:
I wonder what there is to eat.”

I always throw extra feed out for the squirrels...some of them might be Mama Squirrel's grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteIt is really lovely to see them moving around with all their antics.
ReplyDeleteThat is a small squirrel. It can't eat too much given its size.
ReplyDeleteSam desperately needs a horse head squirrel feeder.

ReplyDeleteSo cute! We don't have squirrels in Australia so I was very amused and pleased to see them when we were in America!
ReplyDeleteSo cute.
ReplyDeleteCute but do they get into roofs or wall cavities of houses like possums do? They are protected here in Aus but can be a real nuisance.
ReplyDeleteI've had my share of pesky squirrels. They once wintered over in my dad's VW camper bus and ate through the electrical wiring. Cost over $4000 to repair! Never caught the culprit either!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy those bushy-tailed tree rats....but then I don't have a garden for them to dig up, or bird seed for them to eat. (I didn't used to love them this much when we had both of those things). Pretty pictures in speia.
ReplyDeleteI love watching their tails flick, seemingly without much thought.
