I was out walking in Washington Irving Park Thursday and came across this squirrel noisily eating his lunch. He just sat there and watched me and when I finally got a little closer, he decided to move on.
The day or so before I was on Tulsa’s Turkey Mountain and heard kind of chittering noise and I looked around and saw this squirrel. Eating heartily. I apologize for the terrible quality of the video but I just had my cell phone.
The squirrels out in the woods seem more tolerant than those in our back yard. What’s is up with that? It might be our dogs. They love chasing after the squirrels.
I’m very thankful that I have my health and can take long walks in the woods.
I’m linking with Saturday’s Critters
Awww – sweet!
Hi Alan, I just happened to see you linked up with Eileen’s Saturday’s Critters right before I did. It’s good to see you. Congrats on being in good health. I like the way you have your walks maped out … very neat. And the link to the Flickr video is cool. Have a happy weekend and take care! John
Hello,
Love the photo and video. The first cute has such a cute pose.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great weekend.
Sorry typo I meant in the first photo, the squirrel has a cute pose.
Love the photos and video. It looks as windy as it was on my getaway a few days ago.
Squirrel is so cute and chubby. Have a blessed weekend.
Sweet squirrel shot ^_^

That’s a lovely squirrel and very red compared to ones we have. Long walks or even short ones are saving grace these days.
I have noticed the same thing! The squirrels in the woods aren’t as “squirrely” I guess! 🙂
Since dogs can kill squirrels, I think your backyard squirrels just like living longer 🙂 Squirrels have some unusual sounds when communication with other squirrels, and can get quite cheeky at times. I love watching and listening to them.
I’m sure it’s the dogs. But nice you have other options to get out into nature and see squirrels.
