Playful Squirrels

 
Since Ratty isn't regularly posting enough pictures of squirrels to keep us entertained any more (there's a blog buddy I miss, but he's busy getting his life re-established in Iowa), I'll bring you a couple of playful gray squirrels.

Even though the one looks a bit orange on the side, the white underparts clearly identify this as a gray squirrel.

These two were chasing each other from roof to tree and back. There were black walnuts in the yard. Although I didn't see the squirrels collecting any, I suspect that was part of the attraction of the area to them.

Just as an aside, I now have 677 photos on my Shark Shots photo site. Slowly, but surely, I keep adding to it.

  1. Oh I do love to watch squirrels. The gray ones are really pretty.

    They are my favorites. We don't have them here in Oklahoma. We only have the smaller red squirrels.

    I get to watch them when I visit the kids back in Maine though.

    Great shots you got there Shark. Thanks for taking the time to share them with us.

    I am smiling!!:-)

    FWIW, your link doesn't work to the animals doesn't work. I received the 404 message. Sri. :(

  5. Jackie- the little red ones are so cute, but they are little marauders!

    Chuck- rascals is right!

    rainfield- Ratty was so good at finding squirrel antics for us!

    Ann- I actually don't see them as often as he seemed to, but he was so good at getting their pictures.
