Re: sassyass,

Madame was a daily visitor for about a year and a half. She would come right up and take nuts from my hand, even let me touch her! The closeup photos were not with a zoom lens. I think she must have been human-acquainted some time previously. She was not a youngster, either. I still miss her visits.

What a sweet little guy. He must have been in search of some food to be going crazy like that. They are amazing climbers and jumpers when there is a nut or seed in sight.

Re: Re: Goldiec,

Ciel, I love these pictures and the background that goes with them.  The little Douglas Pine squirrels are so cute!

Re: Goldiec,

Madame was a black version of our local fox squirrels. They are not as big as grey squirrels, I think, but bigger than my favorites, the little Douglas Pine squirrels https://duckduckgo.com/?q=douglas+pin+squirrels&iax=images&ia=images

They chirp like birds!

Re: Pat,

The knowledge of a bag of peanuts in the house was strangely motivating to her, I suspect!

Re: Pat,

This yoyo weather is typical of winter/spring here!

Good Morning

Ciel, I love your squirrel pictures.  We only have brown squirrels.  I sure hope it warms up by your soon.  I've bought things before that have a new smell and I often wonder why that is.  I hope you have a great day!

Your Madame LaDarque could certainly tell some tales to my

backyard squirrels. Very athletic performer!

I guess Mother Nature hasn't read the news: spring has officially begun.
