My backyard is alive with them scurrying about, separating the leaves...I think trying to remember where they hid the nuts they were saving for winter. Love watching them.

I have squirrels all over here. Some are a beautiful light color, others are gray, some are brown. It is fun to see the squirrel diversity.

Thank you Jan. They are HILARIOUS but they have taken apart 18 bird feeders - including the ones that said "guaranteed squirrel-proof".
