Hanging In There


The squirrels have continued their antics in the Maple trees by my deck but they have eaten all the keys that were easy to get to so now have to change techniques to get at the ones on the ends of the branches. They are such great acrobats. If you look closely you can see that this one is using only one foot to hang on. Imagine eating upside down!

Yikes, hanging on by one foot! It seems they will do whatever it takes to get to the tasty bits.

They are such daring acrobats.

I really enjoy seeing them. With their black tufts on their ears. Come to think of it. We have no squirrels in Hawaii. But I remember the eastern grays of course

Phil Slade said...

Great acrobats for sure. It's a shame someone hasn't learnt how to train a troupe for a circus act.

No problems here. Squirrels are the masters of trees.

A squirrel's gotta eat. :-)

Hello :=)
Ha ha, the Squirrel capture is great. They are so agile and must have great strength in their
legs to hold on with just one. I have even seen one hanging by its tail.
All the best.
