I try to be fair to these animals, but their thievery of the bird feeders is irritating as they waste so much. But, you are the generous soul at peace with the planet because your photos make them so gentle and soft and cuddly.

So wonderfully cute and expressive - as well as ingenious and clever... :)

such a pretty little squirrel. I love watching them but agree with Tabor, I get upset when they eat everything I've left out before the birds come.

These little guys are so adorable, yet so fiesty when they come in to the widllife rehab center nursery. I love to peek in on them, but I still stick to feeding the bunnies!

agree with Tabor - 100%....
agree too that they ARE terribly cute and make wonderful photo opportunities
agree too that they are not so patiently waiting and VERY quick to steal whatever one puts outside for the birds....
i now have the same problem in France as i had in England with the squirrels; only here it's the FIVE cats of (probably) 5 neighbours...., their CATS steal everything but really everything I put outside and they don't mind taking a bird for their 'dessert'... i also feed (contre coeur - against my will - of course)pigeons and magpies and it's SO upsetting to see them getting fatter and fatter on the birds food!! But hey ho, c'est la vie - and what we can't change we better accept!
Have a lovely week, all of you and thank you for the beautiful uploads. i'm only sorry to be unable to be more often with you :)
