The world needs this kind of thing once in a while!

They are clever aren't they!

There are a number of You Tube videos of squirrel against "bird feeder putter uppers". Love them.

Ooh, I love a squizzer!
I like going to the local park and feeding them, I love the way they bounce through the grass and outwit the dogs who are chasing them. I know a million people will now come on and tell you that they are vermin but they make me smile :)

I used to have a squirrel called Tiny Tim, he had half a tail and a missing leg (perfectly healed little stump)

Took him two hours to figure out a way to get into the bird proof feeder. Once a crow came down to have a go and Tiny Tim twatted him full in the face by swinging the feeder and it flew off 😂

Sorry- squirrel proof feeder!

We had the suet anchored with matchsticks (so we thought). Took him 2 days to work out how to get it.

Aww I love squirrels we feed some that live in tree's in a church cemetery in the town near us.

The second time I fed them one came right upto my feet and ignored all of the nuts I was feeding them and held my boot and gave it a cuddle bless him,my face Grin when he did that.

Every time I go to feed them since the first time I make a special noise and the squirrel that cuddled my foot comes running over,it is so sweet.
