It's #squirrelsunday again

The squirrels around the neighborhood are still active this winter.

It is still quite mild around here with not too much snow and we are even getting sunny days. The squirrels have it easy this year.

This one managed to scrap around for a piece of bread. I suspect it went dumpster diving for an old baguette.

This one was hanging around in an evergreen tree. It was quite tame, I think it thought I had food for it.

Eventually it ran up the tree after it figured out I had no food for it.

Now just to mix it up a bit I have some chipmunk photos from earlier this spring.

p4196541_copy.jpg
So far this winter I have not seen a chipmunk out anywhere. Maybe they just hibernate underground.

p4196542_copy.jpg
I'll have to try and collect some more chipmunk photos to balance out all the fox squirrel photos I have. I'll have to stash some peanuts on good perching places for good poses.

That's all for now, more squirrlies soon...

Fortunately squirrels are pretty easy to get photos of around here. Birds are much more difficult.

You are very correct but here in Nigeria 🇳🇬 you hardly see them around because hunters do hunt them down @sketch.and.jam

They get hunted sometimes here too, but they mostly have to worry about owls and hawks.

I found a very tame one that seemed to think I had food so it came close to the camera.

This first picture haha. Posing for the camera or thinking "What is this creature doing pointing at me again?"

The detail is great, I mostly get blurs when I try to capture these guys.

I think it thought I had food so it came closer down the branch at me.

Aww they deserved an easier winter. I suppose that colder climate can make their life a bit harder, at least in our eyes. They are probably fine either way

Their fur coats get pretty thick I wonder if they are sweating in the milder winter now.
