More than a photo a day

[RipzLipz]

Didn’t wish to flood the Photo A Day thread, so made this one since I had a montage of sorts from videos I took recently while feeding some of my backyard buds.

 

Yesterday Kevin & 3 others appeared all at once but was only able to grab a short video of Kevin coming down to get a snack, in all his glory, with commentary:

 

Coming down!

I see what you have there for me.

Have to be careful, tree is wet.

Yes, that one, please. Excuse the crumb on my nose.

Aren’t I cute when I look right at you?

Back up to my spot. I can’t be too trusting of you, hu-man.

Almost there.

Nom nom nom nom!

 

Today, around 10A, I glanced out back & noticed a squirrel perched in the "feeding tree" just glaring at the back door. I walked into the kitchen & it raced up onto the deck, jumped up onto the bench swing & finally onto the deck hand rail. He was very excited & began looking into the kitchen window. I grabbed some peanuts & went out back & there was Easy, trying to remain as calm as possible but not doing a good job of it. I handed him a couple, 1 which was eaten, the other taken to his secret burial location off of our property. Didn’t see him for 10-15 minutes so I went back inside only to see him reappear about 45 minutes later, eating up in the tree. I went back outside & was able to get a couple of videos of him chowing down, as follows, with commentary of possible thoughts running through his mind.

 

Is that really you?

 

Yes, it is you hu-man. I’m coming, don’t move.

 

Don’t wish to make this easy, as something might murder me while I’m coming down.

 

 

Here I am! Fooled you hu-man!

 

Still got the goods, right?

Score!

 

Thanks man!

 

After taking the peanut above, Easy went to the left, sitting on a limb just above my head, tearing into the peanut. When he was done, I took another video but I’m getting some errors posting the photos. Will try to post more later.

@TnRiver46 Don’t make her come down & sit on your trap.

@RipzLipz you need to show your two squirrels @TnRiver46 picture and let them know if they ever try to get in your attic they too will be in squirrel jail! 

[RipzLipz]

@12poundbass They know what "jail" is. I woke up many times with one of these in the trap & 6-8 squirrels perched up in the trees, peering down as if asking, “What did you do to get in trouble?"

Somebody hasn’t missed a meal!

Yeah, that’s Fata$$. She hasn’t been around since last spring.

Haven’t seen her in a few months

Probably had a heart attack!

@12poundbass I think she was "big boned" & probably a bit preggers at the time. She never liked me much. @TnRiver46 swears she’s a DD. 🤣
