#Squirrel sightings this morning: a red squirrel (which rarely come this close to our house) having breakfast under our bird feeder, and a gray squirrel who had been shoving thatch into it's mouth, just before it ran into the woods with a big mouthful. (There are several squirrel nests visible in the trees nearby.)

Squirrel on the Roof

This morning, I stepped out the backdoor and spotted a little eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) sunning itself on the roof of my backyard shed. It must have leapt there from a nearby tree, perhaps drawn by the warmth of the roof. The chilly morning air made it the perfect spot to soak up some heat.

My photo gallery features over 1,100 carefully selected images. While most are chosen for their visual appeal, a few stand out as novelty shots. Feel free to explore my gallery at:

On our front porch we have drapes to block the sun when we're sitting there.

This morning I saw a small red squirrel bundling up one of the drapes in its mouth... to try and take the whole thing away, pulling ferociously at the curtain rod!
It did it several times before admitting defeat.

Forget lions, wolves or whatever.
I want to channel my inner squirrel: "I maybe small but I don't give a sh*t! I'll try anyway, again and again!"
