1. Couldn't agree more!

:)

2. How could you not love squirrels?

They're delish!

:evilgrin:

[UpsideDownFlag]

3. actually, they do taste pretty good. not much meat on them, though.

i prefer to watch them in silent adoration.

6. No rodent meals for me!

Figured if I get hungry enough to eat squirrel, then any old rodent will do. I'll go vegan first!

4. squirrels? That's nuts!

...

5. Well, um, #4 kinda reminds me of "Carrot Top"

which isn't particularly "adorable." Other than that (and the fact you have a chipmonk in there), nice pics :)

Edit: "chipmunk" even... (Yes, I know I've been shown to be wrong, but I want to acknowledge my spelling error too).

10. i thought it was a chipmunk, too. but it really is a kind of squirrel.

i got it from a squirrel website. i forget its species name.

11. Yes, I thought better of it after I'd typed it,

but decided against modifying it. Thanks for the confirmation though.

7. what kind of beer is bush drinking the top pic ?

It's nice to see a young king W before his brain melted

8. While I'll take my cat over a squirrel every time, I gotta respect

a critter that will stand on a tree branch and hook nuts at you :7

9. No way! The little buggers are vicious! n/t

12. I wish I could get good pictures like that of our squirrels

We have one that has claimed our back porch as his territory, and boy, does he cuss us out if we come outside while he's there. That, and the gymnastics they can do to get to a bird feeder are worth more than most concert tickets. My kids will watch the squirrels in the front yard by the hour.

13. I always thought you were kinda squirrelly

:evilgrin:

14. terrorist squirrel?

[UpsideDownFlag]

16. i used to live in colorado, and there was a huge scare about them

they had some kind of Bubonic plague. seriously.

so perhaps they were terrorist squirrels...using biological warfare on us. sleeper cells, maybe.

20. Disenfranchised Florida Squirrel

...of the threatened Floridian bushus trynascrewus variety. :nuke:

However, it may be saved from electoral extinction by the small but powerful Washingtonian Representus Corinna Brownus.

23. We have one

of these living in our backyard. They seem to be more skiddish than the greys....actually they are greys too but with a genetic difference.

Love to watch squirrels. Even more fun is watching the neighbor in his futile attempts to "outsmart" the squirrels to keep them out of his bird feeders...I expect to see the neighbor waving a white flag of surrender very soon.

15. I want the fuzzy ears squirrel

I would take such goooood care of him and feed him EVERY day.

Can I? Huh? Please?

[Spiffarino]

21. Now Lenny

...you know what happened to the last one.

[Crunchy Frog]

17. I have some squirrels here right now.

I do volunteer work in wildlife rehab, so I often end up with orphaned babies that need to be hand raised.

My guys are really big and obnoxious now, but they're still pretty cute. Thanks for the pictures.

[miss_kitty]

18. They may be rats with fluffy tails

but dang, they're cute!

[UpsideDownFlag]

19. they are NOT rats with fluffy tails.

they are more similar to mouses. rats are horrible. possibly worse than dust mites.

22. This one looks

...like Dilbert's boss.
