Are you going Squirrely???

Since some of us are going "squirrely" from social distancing in these uncertain times, I thought it would be fun to share some squirrel pictures I have taken over the years.  

The only Flying Squirrel I have ever seen at Henderson Conservation Area was in 2013.  We were watching a woodpecker inspect various tree cavities.  When the woodpecker peeked into this hole, out popped a flying squirrel, wondering who had disturbed his sleep!

This pair of black squirrels were just "hanging around" as they enjoyed the morning sunshine at Springbank Park in London.

We caught this one by surprise!!  

Exeter, ON is famous for their white squirrel population, but every once in awhile one pops up in a different location.  I found this one in Wyoming, ON several years ago.  I have heard there is one in Germain Park, but have not gone looking for it.

We don't see many Red Squirrels in Lambton County. 
I always enjoy watching them at The Pinery.

A safe space to eat some berries!

We placed a stick near the backyard feeder to provide a perch for birds.  
This squirrel took advantage of his extended reach to grab some lunch.

We often think that are too many squirrels in Canatara Park.  
These 2 are contributing to the problem!

All tuckered out after a long day of chasing nuts.
