Yum yum!



busy busy busy
up and down the trees
chewing gnawing sawing
a meal fit for a queen


I just love watching it's little hands
and the bits flying as it spits the non-edible part out

  2. Such a charming creature! Mmmmm, it seems so delicious this "queen meal"!! I like the tiny fingers, too! And the branches, forming a kind of a balcony!:)) Lovely photos, Tammie!

  5. I love watching the antics of Squirrel! :) They are so funny.

    This is a great photo Tammie...seeing the little fingers as they do their work is awesome. Industrious little critters aren't they?

    Thanks for sharing this and the bear photos...I'm happy you didn't get any closer to that bear!

    Have a Spectacular Week!
    Blessings Dear One!

  7. So cute. I just have to tell you this story. I was always finding my garbage bags in disarray and tended to blame the neighborhood cats until one day I opened the door and discovered the real culprit. From that day on I always kept unsalted mixed nuts in the house and put a handful on the back porch every day before I left for work, and each night they'd be gone. We really had a great working relationship for awhile.

    That is until the store had no mixed nuts, and I had to buy peanuts instead. You know those little critters refused to touch them? How spoiled could they get.

    I used to love on weekends opening the door and finding them crunching away on their treats.

  24. I love watching squirrels, too! Those little hands! The other day I looked out the window and there was a chipmunk chirping away like mad on our patio, a very lazy rabbit stretched out on the lawn taking a nap, and an entire flock of gold finches. What a treat watching wildlife is!

    The grizzly in your previous post is gorgeous!

  25. TL - now that is more my size. Amazing series of photos - as you say just so delicate the way it is handling the food - you have such variety on you walks. Go well. B

  26. So lovely, Tammie. And such patience to achieve these captures without startling the squirrel. I think they sense they are with kindred spirit!

  29. Nice. I can identify with that. I too like my walnuts before they are quite ripe. There must be something special in those green cones.

  30. Years ago, I almost shot one of these on account of not being used to the scope that was on the rifle. For I thought I was looking at one of the required ingredients for squirrel and dumplings. Thankfully, I realized my mistake before it was too late. Be assured that I have never wanted to kill anything that wasn't meant for the supper table.
